New discrimination techniques for Euler deconvolution

چکیده
Euler deconvolution has come into wide use as an aid to interpreting profile or gridded magnetic survey data. It provides automatic estimates of source location and depth. In doing this, it uses a Structural Index (SI) to characterise families of source types. Euler deconvolution can be usefully applied to gravity data. For simple bodies, the gravity SI is one less than the magnetic SI. For more complex bodies (including the contact case), the Euler method is at best an approximation. Extended Euler provides better-constrained solutions for both gravity and magnetic bodies. Seven alternative formulations on the Extended Euler equations are presented. A parametric model study for Extended Euler reveals the ability to calculate depths, SI, strike and error estimates. The computed SI values from model studies are compared to equivalent examples from field data across known geological structures. New discrimination techniques for isolating geological bodies of interest are proposed and applied. The computed SI is used to discriminate magnetic signatures arising from known kimberlites. In another study, the discrimination is used to classify major fault contacts. The advent of new formulations of Euler equations offers scope to further refine discrimination strategies.

Unification of Euler and Werner deconvolution in three dimensions via the generalized Hilbert transform
The extended Euler deconvolution algorithm is shown to be a generalization and unification of 2-D Euler deconvolution and Werner deconvolution. After recasting the extended Euler algorithm in a way that suggests a natural generalization to three dimensions, we show that the 3-D extension can be realized using generalized Hilbert transforms. The resulting algorithm is both a generalization of ex...
متن کاملNew Improvement in Interpretation of Gravity Gradient Tensor Data Using Eigenvalues and Invariants: An Application to Blatchford Lake, Northern Canada
Recently, interpretation of causative sources using components of the gravity gradient tensor (GGT) has had a rapid progress. Assuming N as the structural index, components of the gravity vector and gravity gradient tensor have a homogeneity degree of -N and - (N+1), respectively. In this paper, it is shown that the eigenvalues, the first and the second rotational invariants of the GGT (I1 and ...

The concept of extended Euler homogeneity of potential fields is examined with respect to all variables of length dimension in their analytical expressions. This reveals the possible existence of positive degrees of homogeneity or corresponding negative structural indices considered as extensions of the Thompson’s structural indices in Euler deconvolution. This approach is implemented for a con...
