Archeology and PI's

[Anonymous]

Just a question regarding alternate uses for the PI's in regard to relic or Archeology application. If your targets are a mixture from iron to gold with sizes ranging from a coin to a medium iron box. What PI machine or set up on the current machines work best?

Generally, PI's for archaeological surveys are the higher powered, longer delay type devices that can utilised large coils. They can not only pick up the larger targets deep (greater than coin size), but can be used to measure the intensity of magnetic mineralisation in the ground. This latter feature is useful in detecting disturbances in the ground from ancient foundations, post holes, firing kilns and rubbish pits. To discern these features though, an effective data logging system has to be incorporated to record the detector output so that it can be plotted or displayed later.
