EM Survey Interpretation Summary
Anomaly Findings
| Anomaly | Location | Conductivity | Est. Depth | Type | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | Stn 18-22 | High (>1000 mS/m) | 120-160m | Massive conductor | High |
| B | Stn 35-38 | Moderate (400-600) | 200-250m | Disseminated | Medium |
| C | Stn 44-48 | Weak (100-150) | 280m+ | Deep target | Low |
