Abstract
Abstract
A broken ore‐vein is very common in nature. A small scale model of such a vein has been made by placing two thin metal sheets edge to edge with an air gap between them. The electromagnetic response of this model in a uniform oscillating magnetic field has been measured. The results show that (a) the response of the whole body is not the sum of responses of the constituent parts, (b) the response of the upper part is dominant by virtue of its proximity to the receiving coil and (c) the lower part has the effect of making the upper part appear nearer to the surface and poorer in conductance than it really is.
