Eagle geophysics

Project Details

Project ID:
1669
Nickname/Abbreviation:
Eagle GP
Parent Project:
Geophysics Program
Status:
Complete
Description:
The Eagle airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey covers parts of the Charley River, Eagle, and Tanacross quadrangles near Eagle, Alaska. Magnetic and radiometric data were collected with a fixed-wing aircraft May 24 to June 27, 2021 by MPX Geophysics LTD. A total of 26,926 line kilometers were collected covering 9,731 square kilometers. The magnetometer was mounted to a rear-facing fixed boom (tail stinger). The radiometric crystals were located in the cabin of the aircraft. The Eagle survey was flown with a line spacing of 400 meters (m) and a mean ground clearance of 330 m. This work was supported by the Bureau of Land Management grant L18AC00019 and the U.S. Geological Survey's Earth MRI program grant G20AC00160.
