Abstract

ABSTRACT

The copper sulphide exploration programme in Albania involves a number of geophysical methods. The most important ones are the Induced Polarization (IP) and the T methods. This paper reports some recent achievements in increasing the depth of investigation and in discriminating sulphide ore textures by the IP, spectral IP and T methods.
