A small-loop electromagnetic (EM) system using multiple frequencies has advantages in survey speed and cost despite of limitation on its depth of investigation. Therefore, small-loop EM surveys have been frequently used on various site investigations involving engineering and environmental problems. We have developed a subsurface imaging technique using small loop EM data. We used a one-dimensional (ID) inversion method to reconstruct a subsurface image from frequency EM sounding data. Tests using simulated data show that the method can reasonably recover the subsurface resistivity structure. Also, the method was tested on field data obtained with multiple frequency small loop EM system at a farm in Chunchon, Korea. The resistivity image obtained form field data compares favorably with the image from the dipole-dipole resistivity survey.

For surveying shallow gas reservoirs in the Pohang basin, we proposed a seismic exploration method applicable to the transition zone in which land and marine areas are connected. We designed the seismic acquisition geometry considering both environments. We installed land nodal receivers on the ground and employed vibroseis and airgun sources in both land and marine areas. For seismic exploration in the transition zone, specific acquisition and processing techniques are required to ensure precise matching of reflectors at the boundary between the onshore and offshore regions. To enhance the continuity of reflection events on the seismic section, we performed amplitude and phase corrections with respect to the source types and applied a static correction. Following these processing steps, we obtained a seismic section showing connected reflectors around the boundary in the transition zone. We anticipate that our proposed seismic exploration method can also be used for fault detection in the transition zone.

호주 Victoria주에서 2007년에 이어 2008년에 Victoria주 북부 지역에서 추가로 탐사 자료를 획득하였으며, 이에 대한 2차원 및 3차원 해석을 수행하였다. 새로이 얻은 자료는 이전의 측선과 나란하게 설정하여 이전 결과에서 해석하였던 전기비저항 영상의 연장성을 밝히고자 하였다. 2차원 및 3차원 역산 결과를 이 지역의 지질자료와 비료 해석한 결과 2007년 MT자료 해석으로부터 확인된 고비저항 및 저비저항대의 공통적인 특징을 새로운 측선에서도 확인할 수 있었으며, 또한 이 지역의 대규모 단층대로 영상화할 수 있었다.

In order to obtain the geological information of the shallow subsurface and the characteristics of resistivity curves to the lateral extent of the gold bearing gravel layer underlaid by a thick layer, electrical resistivity surveys had been carried out in the northern area of Takaoi village, Kalimantan, Indonesia from September 30th to October 27th in 1999. The Dipole-Dipole (Dp-Dp) resistivity survey was carried out with a electrode spacing of A=3m, 5m and electrode separation index n=10, and the vertical electrical sounding (VES) of the Schlumberger type was performed at 6 sites. The interpretation of the Dp-Dp data and VES curves by computer modeling indicates 5 classified layers as the horizontal structure. And the characteristics of VES curves shows us KH type.

3-D ore modeling was performed to understand the configuration of ore bodies by integrated analysis of borehole and geophysical data in iron-mine area. Five representative indices of rocks were designated, which were obtained from geological survey and borehole. The five indices of rocks were geostatistically simulated by Sequential Indicator Simulation method to delineate boundary of the ore bodies. And Ordinary Kriging and Sequential Gaussian Simulation was applied to make secondary information using resistivity data from magnetotellurics and DC resistivity survey, and this information was used for simple kriging with local varying means, one of integrated kriging techniques. From the correlation analysis between each properties, it was found that high grade of ore is characterized by increased density, whereas the electrical resistivity decreases. With the integrated results of geophysical and borehole data, it was also found that the real configuration of ore body was similar to the modeled result and information about ore grade in 3-D space was obtained.

우리나라에서 본격적으로 물리탐사를 시도한것은 1958~1960년에 실시한 항공자력탐사로서 그후 현재까지 불과 20년이 지나지 않았다. 그간 물리탐사의 기술발전으로 자원탐사분야에 많은 공헌이 있었다. 현재까지 주로 적용된 분야는 철자원탐사를 위한 자력탐사, 지하수조사를 위한 전기비저항탐사동, 연등의 통화금속광물탐사를 위한 각종 전기탐사, 제3기층 지질구조와 땜공사, 공업단지조성등의 기반암조사, 그리고 광산의 갱내 출수조사등을 위한 탄성파탐사, 우라늄자원을 위한 방사능탐사, 그리고 해저지질 및 자원조사를 위한 해상물리탐사등이다. 이와 동시에 석탄층조사를 위한 전기탐사 및 Model연구자력탐사의 전산처리 적용, 그리고 광물 및 암석의 물리적 성질등 학술분야에 대한 기초연구도 계속하여 왔다. 우리나라에 있어 물리탐사의 적용조건은 비교적 험악한 지형, 복잡한 지질구조, 광상의 불규칙 또는 소규모의 발달과 산재등이다. 이와 같은 특징은 탐사해석의 정도를 높이기 위하여 보다 고도의 과학기술문제의 해결을 요구하고 있으며 이와 동시에 현대적 탐사방법과 연구개발로 대상자원의 탐사지역확대와 지하심부 탐사등이 당면과제이다. 기술과제로서는 석탄 및 기타자원에 대한 물리검층탐사, 경상계 지질구조구명을 위한 탄성파탐사 및 동력탐사의 적용, 항공자력, 전자 및 방사능탐사 및 해양의 각종물리탐사의 기술개발이 있으며 그외 탐사자료의 전산처리기술 및 지구과학의 기초연구등이 있다.

Geostatistical inverse approach using geophysical data was applied to indirectly make the RMR classification at points apart from boreholes. The geostatistical appoach was usually used to find optimized estimation which supports two or more different physical properties at unsampled points. However, in this study, an approach to solve inverse problem was proposed. The primary variable, RMR values obtained at known boreholes, is geostatistically simulated with many realization at pre-defined grid point according to the variogram model. The simulated values are sequentially compared with the physical property resulted from geophysical survey at an arbitrary grid point, and the most similar one is chosen. This process means that the spatial distribution of primary variable, RMR, is conformed well to the original pattern of the borehole observation, and ensure to fit the geophysical survey result to reflect the correlation between different physical properties.
