Q

Magnetic of property of sed rocks

Study These Flashcards
A

Non magnetic unless enriched with magnetite bearing sulfide

22
Q

the response signaled by the causative bodyover regional trends of country rocks

Study These Flashcards
A

Magnetic Anomaly

23
Q

Temperature above which magetic minerals lose their magnetic property (Curie Temo)

24
Q

?No electrons are unpaired, lahat may ka pair
?Magnetic susceptibility is negative (Non Magnetic)
?When magnetic field is applied, magnetization is induced but reuces to zero when the field is removed
?Will be repelled when placed near a magnet

Study These Flashcards
A

Diamagnetic Subastance

25
?Magnetic field exists due to the spin of unpaired electrons ?Magnetic Susceptibility is Positive and Small (Weakly Magnetic) ?Tend to line up in the presence of magnetic field ?Magnetization depende linearly and reduces to zero on removal of the field ?Will be weakly attracted to Magnet ?Can be observed only at relatively low temp
Paramagnetic
26
?Dipoles are PARALLEL to the magnetic domains ?Strong Spontaneous Magnetization w/c can exist even w.o external magnetic field ?Magnetic Susceptibility is very High (Strongly Magnetic)
Ferromagnetic
27
?Dipoles are ANTI-PARALLEL w. equal number of dipoles in each direction ?There is noexternal magnetic field effects due to self cancellation ?Defects in crystal lattice may caused small magnetization caled Parasitic Antiferromagnetism (Non magnetic low temps but can be magnetic at higher temps until Neel Temp)
Antiferromagnetic
28
?Dipoles are ANTI-PARALLEL w. unequal strength of dipoles thus no self cancellation ?Weakly attracte to magnet ?Can be transformed into Paramagnetism upon heating
Ferrimagnetism
29
The temperature at which ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic materials becomes paramagnetic on heating and lose their magnetic property
Curie temp (570 deg cel)
30
Inherited Magnetization remaining after the removal of applie field
Remanent or Permanent Magnetization
31
Type of remanent magentization whrein igenous rock solidifes and cools thtough the curie temp of its magnetic minerals
Thermoremanent Magnetization (TRM)
32
The Magnetic particles of a sediment align within the Earth;s Field during sedimentation
Detrital Remanent Magnetiztaion (DRM)
33
Magnetic Minerals recrystallize or grow during diaganesis or metamorphism
Chemical Remanent Magnetization (CRM)
34
Develop slowly in an ambient magnetic field (Cool) as the domain magnetization relax ito the direction of the field
Viscous Remanent Magnetization (VRM)
35
Path of Magnetiztaion
Hysterysis Loop
36
Common causes of Magnetic Anomaly
1) Dykes (vertical) 2) Faulted, Folded or truncated sills and lava flows (Horizontal0) 3) Massive Basic Intrusion 4) Met Basement Rocks 5) Magnetite Ore Bodies
37
Theory which states that Earths Magnetic Field is created continously within the outer core through an intense current loop due to friction caused by earth's rotation
Dynamo Theory
38
Magnetic survey instrument used to measure geomagnetic elements based on priniples of a suspended bar magnet in Earth's Field
Magnetic Variometer
39
Standard instrument in magnetic surverys which provides reading every 0.1 of a second
High Sensitivity Cesium Vapor Magnetometer
40
Differential Magnetormeters
Magnetic Gradiometers
41
Long term variatons in yhe main magnetic field caused by fluid motion in the Earth;s outer core but will not complicatie data reduction efforts
Secular Variations
42
How can the longterm regional variations in magnetic field be corrected?
Used the IGRF Formula
43
Cyclical Daily variations in magnetic field strength ranging from 20-60 nT
Diurnal Variations
44
Maxmimum and Minimum of such daily variations
10 am max 4pm min
45
How can the effect of diurnal variation be correcte?
Periodic calibration of insturemnts at a fixed base station
46
Streams of high energy particles associated with sunsport activties striking the upper atmosphere and enormously increasing ionisphere currents
Magnetic Storms
47
How can this be corrected?
Delay the Survey
48
