  • The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of Potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This radiometric uranium grid has a cell size of 0.0006 degrees (approximately 60m) and shows uranium element concentration of the Coober Pedy Ridge, SA, 1986 (86SA07) (74tk) survey. The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2000 by the SA Government, and consisted of 8650.0 line-kilometres of data at 300.0m line spacing and 80.0m terrain clearance.

  • Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This magnetic grid has a cell size of 0.0005 degrees (approximately 50m). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2000 by the SA Government, and consisted of 8650.0 line-kilometres of data at 300.0m line spacing and 80.0m terrain clearance.
