초록

호주 Century 광산 주변에서 2차원 MT 탐사를 수행하였다. 현장으로부터 약 80 km 떨어진 Gregory Downs(RR_GREG)에 원거리 기준점을 설치, 운영하고 이 자료를 이용하여 양질의 탐사자료의 획득이 가능하였다. 이와 동시에 현장으로부터 약 6,400 km 떨어진 일본 Esashi (RR_ESS)에서 측정된 수평 자기장 자료를 이용하여 원거리 기준 자료처리를 수행한 결과 자기장의 coherency가 낮아 원거리 기준점 자료로 사용하기에는 적합하지 않았다. Century 광산의 주변에서 수행된 측선 탐사자료의 2차원 및 3차원 역산 결과 연구지역의 전반적인 심부 지질구조를 잘 나타내었으며, 탐사의 주된 목표인 Termite Range Fault는 측선의 북쪽에 나타나는 저비저항층과 남쪽에 나타나는 고비저항층의 경계면을 이루면서 북동쪽으로 약간 경사진 것으로 해석되었다.

Two-dimensional (2D) MT surveys near the Century mine in Australia have been performed with very far remote reference in Esashi, Japan (RR_ESS) as well as Gregory Downs (RR_GREG), which are roughly 6,400 km and 80 km apart from the survey area, respectively. Good quality of MT data could be obtained by remote reference processing with RR_GREG, while the coherency of magnetic fields between field sites and RR_ESS was not sufficient to be used as remote data. Both 2D and 3D inversion of 2D profile data represented the general geological structure beneath the survey area. The main target of the survey, Termite Range Fault, appeared as a boundary between a conductive block to the north and a resistive block to the south in the reconstructed resistivity section, and is inclined slightly to the north-east direction.
