Induced polarisation method (Time domain) in hidden bauxite deposits exploration

This paper shows the results of the induced polarization method (IP) in time domain (2 sec. time interval) and<br>resistivity method (RM) in finding hidden bauxite deposits in the area of Stitovo near Niksic (Montenegro).<br>Theoretical basis of the IP method is given, as well as methodological and technical data of the geoelectric<br>method applied, and electrodes array for the field measurements.<br>Results obtained through interpretation of acquired and processed IP and RM parameters are presented. In the<br>paper, results of exploration of some other ores performed from 1980 to 2002 are also presented. At the end, we<br>have drawn important conclusions concerning IP and RM method application together with decay curve<br>analysis.
