Circle Geophysical Survey

This geophysical survey is located in north-central Alaska in the Circle mining district, about 120 kilometers northeast of Fairbanks, Alaska. Frequency domain electromagnetic and magnetic data were collected with the DIGHEM system from August to September 1993. A total of 2516.7 line kilometers were collected covering 921.5 square kilometers. Line spacing was 400 meters (m). Data were collected 30 m above the ground surface from a helicopter towed sensor platform ("bird") on a 30 m long line.
