Out-of-phase (conductivity) component plot for EM-31. One anomalous area correlated with the tentatively identified stone-cased well located at 90N/165E during the magnetometer survey. A large anomalous area, located between 150N-270N and 90E-180E, identified on both the total magnetic field and the soil conductivity plots, represented a shallow surface depression. There was also a general trend for the soil conductivity to increase to the northeast. The in-phase component indicated the presence of several anomalous areas, including point sources located at 150N/270E and 270N/135E, and a linear area along 120N-180N/165E.
