About this survey

A broadband magnetotelluric survey of two lines north of Moomba in the Cooper Basin, South

Australia, acquired between 26 January and 9 February 2008 by Quantec Geoscience Pty Ltd for Eden

Energy Ltd on geothermal exploration licence GEL 185. It is the Moomba North part of the

contractor's three area Cooper MT project, beside Bollards Lagoon and Mungerannie. The target was

depth to basement and conductive zones at 3 to 5 km,

prospective for geothermal reservoirs in the Nappamerri Trough. Soundings were remote referenced

tensor measurements on an L shaped array, 100 m dipoles and three induction coils per site on

Quantec RT-130 loggers, at about 1 km spacing. 43 of the 45 sites the contractor tabulated are

served, on 41 to 46 frequencies from 238.3 Hz to 2621 s. Released open file by the Geological

Survey of South Australia. Each file is served as stored, in the frame it declares; README.md

carries the caveats.
