Conductivity data from Sand Creek Village. The conductivity data appear to represent natural changes in the terrace. Areas of high conductivity appear at the north central portion of the area, as well as along much of the southern edge. A third area of high conductivity is found near the middle portion of the west edge of the project area. Two areas within the grid appear to be associated with the magnetic gradient anomalies. These are located at N7/E14 and N29/E24. These two low conductivity anomalies are probably the same two magnetic anomalies in the gradient data set.
