WHAT WE DO
EXPLORE THE RESERVE BOUNDARIES OF YOUR METALLIC MINERAL SITE UP FRONT
Aerial (Drone) Magnetic Surveys are one of the most widely used geophysical methods to measure disturbances in the earth’s magnetic field caused by ferrous materials such as steel-rich rocks and soil. We use dual sensors in our studies to increase resolution and detection capability.

What is UAV (Drone) Magnetic Geophysical Survey?
Aeromagnetic/airborne/drone magnetic geophysical surveys are airborne determinations of the intensity of the geomagnetic field to detect local magnetic variations in rocks/rocks. The resulting magnetic data is often used to support the mapping of geological formations, their influencing anomalies and faults to directly detect any magnetic mineral concentrations.
MAGNETISM OF A ROCK
A rock may have acquired its magnetic properties during its creation or evolution, either influenced by the old magnetic field (residual magnetization) or merging with the current magnetic field (ambient field).
In the latter case, the magnetization is oriented with respect to the Earth’s magnetic field and is therefore proportional to it. The coefficient of proportionality describes the magnetic susceptibility of the material or medium. This susceptibility depends on the magnetic mineral content found in the rock, which is mainly magnetite and pyrrhotine. For example, mafic and ultramafic rocks have a higher concentration of magnetite than felsic, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks.WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF AN AERIAL GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY?
There are many different types of aerial magnetic geophysical surveys: magnetic, radiometric, electromagnetic, gravimetric sensors fixed to helicopter, airplane or drone platforms to take measurements at a certain meter.
These surveys make it possible to effectively cover large areas that may be inaccessible or even hazardous without the need to cut any lines, thus significantly reducing overhead costs, so that the costs are lower than any geophysical survey land survey for a large area. However, the resolution they provide is many times higher than terrestrial geophysical surveys.WHICH AREAS NEED AERIAL MAGNETIC SURVEYS?
This type of survey used to be very expensive and only used by government agencies and is very useful for land use development and planning. Today, drone technology has made these studies easier and less costly. They are often used by mining and oil exploration companies, as well as for hydrogeological, archaeological, environmental and even military surveys.
HOW IS AN AERIAL MAGNETIC SURVEY PERFORMED?
Magnetometers are fixed to an airplane, a helicopter or an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying over the area, applying a series of equidistant linear paths to collect magnetic measurements. The direction of the lines is usually perpendicular to the geological structures of the area to be studied. The data is then processed to produce profiles, maps and models that geologists can interpret.
Modern technology in geophysical drone surveys can now sample at very high resolution compared to historical geophysical land surveys, and does so at a lower cost and without the need for line cutting.Get an offer about DroneMag now.
