Abstract
Recently there has been considerable discussion in geophysical journals regarding<br>the optimum waveforms for airborne electromagnetic (AEM) systems. The<br>approaches taken have varied from data processing, to theoretical modeling, to<br>hardware modifications. This paper uses real data from the SPECTREM system to<br>compare different waveforms. SPECTREM is a full-duty time domain AEM system<br>which has operated successfully since 1989. The data used in the paper actually led<br>to the discovery of the Konuto mine in the Canadian Shield.
