About this survey

Magnetotelluric survey of the Tantanoola grid, Otway Basin, south east South Australia, about 5 km north east of Millicent. 59 tensor soundings across the two Tantanoola stages of Quantec's four-grid Limestone Coast MT Project were acquired for Panax Geothermal Ltd on geothermal exploration licences GEL 170 and GEL 171, between 12 August and 30 September 2008, to map basement structure and conductive zones at 2 to 5 km depth. Recording used Quantec RT-130 loggers, 100 m dipoles and three induction coils per site, remote referenced against a fixed base; processing was QuickLay 3.0 then Geotools 2.3. The Geological Survey of South Australia released the survey open file, and AusMT serves all 59 files byte identical, each carrying impedance and tipper with variances on 36 to 49 frequencies from 238.3 Hz to a median longest period of 936 s. One station is stored in a frame 90 degrees from the other 58; README.md carries that and the other caveats.
