Surface Surveys Metal Detection


High-sensitivity metal detection surveys are offered for site characterization and screening.  On-site results and in-field plots permit dynamic work plans.  Survey production rates of 1 to 4 line-km per hour are possible with the wheel-mounted system.  On relatively smooth ground this system has a horizontal accuracy of  +/- 0.1 to +/- 0.2 m.  Screening a site with this system prior to subsurface sampling, or drilling/excavation permits a more organized and comprehensive site characterization.

operator constantly aware of anomalous metallic objects in the subsurface.

provides excellent search and mapping capability.  Rapid reconnaissance and 
detail mapping are handled very well.
