DIGHEM

Calibration adds confidence in the measurements;

Project reports explain the process of calibration. Calibration is routine before, during and after each survey. Surveys include perpendicular "tielines" that demonstrate that the data is repeatable as the tieline data compares to the original survey data.

Calibration information is attached for reference.

More Gold and precious metals have been revealed in the DIGHEM surveys done in Alaska than anywhere else on earth! Australia has been doing SKYTEM surveys to identify minerals and water resources.

SKYTEM is a Time Domain "PULSE" method and cannot discriminate metals and minerals like DIGHEM which is FDEM (aka VLF) and therefore capable of discrimination using "phase". :thumbsup:

What is the effect of magnetic ground?

Magnetite is found in abundance almost everywhere gold is found! In recognition of the effect of magnetite, DIGHEM project reports provide an explanation of the effect and possible correction for it.

As in common metal detectors, iron can mask gold. Here's why...

Edit: Credit goes to Alaska DGGS, Fugro/CGG for publishing this informative report!

Imagine a metal detector that measures up to 400 feet into the earth!

Digital Helicopter Borne Electromagnetic - DIGHEM.

This is the real deal! Mounted on a an A-Star 350B2 helicopter running survey lines at 90 mph (130 feet per second).

It has a footprint 60 feet across!

The data is available to the public. Download it at no cost!

A viewer is available from GeoSoft called Oasis Montaj viewer. It's free!

Surveys have been done in all of the major mining districts in Alaska!

I have spent 12 years doing interpretation of DIGHEM data.

Stick around! There's more! :)

I know some people don’t want to hear this but this is very similar principle that Long Range Locator /frequency generators use. Dell Winders mantra was something like “What has been done can still be done.”

And probably just as reliable.

I don’t know what the most modern LRL’s use but these aerial type of systems are more complicated and more computer data is gathered than the old MFD type locators with L-rods. And add to it any geological knowledge of the area.

Most people don’t realize the early MFD locators did use an electronic receiver. It was a few years later that Dell Winders introduced the L-rods as a way of detecting the signal, especially during times of varying power/reception.
 
The early electronic receivers for MFD were nearly impossible to keep tuned, they were expensive for the hobbyist and the Vern Rose used the receiver system weighed 90 lbs.

The difference is in "what works" and "what does not work".

LRL's and other two bit equivalent wonders would be used by legitimate exploration companies if they really did work! They do not work!

Everyone wants a cheap solution to get rich quick. LRL's and their cousins in the market place are pure and simple fraudulent schemes designed to fleece non-technical prospectors out of their money.

The facts prove it. :thumbsup:

It is sad and unfortunate that people don't take the time to learn a few simple facts about why metal detectors work and an LRL with a nine volt battery, antenna and a meter does not work.
There's way too much experience with DIGHEM to debate the issue.

Metal detectors have worked from the beginning born out of WWI and WWII mine detectors and submarine chasers. It's all history and not subject to any dispute. Cost is a factor in anything costing over $20.00 for some. DIGHEM is out of that realm costing millions, surveys costing millions ran by scientists costing millions for exploration companies worth millions. DIGHEM is presented here for the virtue of detecting GOLD deposits and sharing that information with readers.

The inventor of DIGHEM is Douglas Fraser;

Doug Fraser has recently passed and remains a legend in the world of Geophysics for his work. A search will reveal a "book" of information on work done in developing DIGHEM as it has evolved over the past 50 years. DIGHEM has been patented. The system has been peer reviewed in publications on geophysical systems, methods and concepts by leading scientists in the World today. DIGHEM has been used in applications all over the World and continues to be used today in exploration for Gold, other precious and base metals. DIGHEM is calibrated, repeatable and stands as the primary "go to" tool in the industry.

For readers getting into the interesting field of Mining and Exploration;

Junior Mining Network remains a reference for daily updates on the Mining and Exploration industry!

The platform serves as a source of every day work done using DIGHEM and other related exploration tools in the industry.

Magnetite Mapping;

There are entities that want iron! Magnetite can also be associated with gold! Iron is a necessity for industry and DIGHEM has a Magnetometer (actually two).

In the project reports published by Alaska DGGS, Fugro/CGG, magnetite Mapping is covered.

Please check out the attachment for details!

I may disagree with GW on some of his postings, but he's absolutely spot-on with this one.
 
Anyone can do this;

In our discussion on DIGHEM, the take-away is that DIGHEM is a system that can get us on the Gold!

DIGHEM surveys have been done. The data reveals locations containing buried treasure in the form of valuable mineral deposits. My effort is directed toward facilitating an understanding of DIGHEM and helping others to realize the importance of what DIGHEM can do. As individuals, we have an opportunity to know where gold is buried. Knowing that the technology is proven. Knowing the technology is being used every day by mining and exploration companies to find more gold. As a result, eventually gold as a commodity will have all been discovered!

I suspect Astronaut Gordon Cooper used something similar when he was mapping Soviet submarine locations from orbit. He also mapped shipwrecks for his own use. There was a tv series about this but they never found out what equipment he was using.

A NASA employee from years ago Bill Morgan worked with frequency discriminators. He never mentioned where he got his info. He came up with some frequencies that were very close to Earth Field NMR frequencies.

Can you find a better reference than a TV series? What info?
 
DIGHEM has scientific, time proven, repeatable, verifiable, peer reviewed "cause and effect" evidence.

Dowser has nothing but "cause and coincidence". Randi debunked dowsing decades ago in a televised double blind test in the land of Aussies.

Why keep beating a dead horse? :dontknow:

The series was on Discovery Channel titled “Cooper’s Treasure” I think.
