Abstract

Summary

Aeromagnetic data is widely used to prospect for many different minerals. A first step in many exploration projects is the use of a semi-automatic interpretation method that provides initial estimates of source parameters that can be refined by later modelling and inversion. Many such techniques exist, such as Euler deconvolution ( ) and the Tilt-Depth method ( ). This abstract shows that by separating the magnetic anomalies of dykes and contacts into amplitude and phase portions their dip can be obtained.
