induced polarization definition
induced polarization means the geophysical method of applying an electrical charge to the ground and measuring the electrical chargeability of the minerals in the rocks and the decay of the induced electrical charge to define the presence of sulphide and other minerals;
induced polarization or “IP” means a method of ground geophysical surveying employing an electrical current to determine
induced polarization means a technology and device that measure the electrical properties of rock that can be mapped with inductive electromagnetic methods, or using galvanic methods. The technology can detect elevated levels of sulphide and elevated levels of silica present in rocks. Resistivity and induced polarization profiling are usually performed together.
More Definitions of induced polarization
induced polarization means a survey that measures the time varying resistivity and conductance of a volume of rock. Measurements can be related to the percentage of conductive material (e.g., sulfides, graphites) in a volume of rock.
induced polarization or “IP” means a method of ground geophysical surveying employing an electrical current to determine indications of mineralization.
