GRAD2TMI GX – Total Field Calculated from Horizontal Gradients
GRAD2TMI.GX (horizontal gradients to total field) is an OASIS MontajTM based GX tool for calculating a total magnetic field grid from two horizontal gradient Hx and Hy grids (Nelson, 1994). There are two advantages for applying this GX to measured horizontal gradient data:
  • highlight anomalies (e.g. kimberlites) with high gradients;
  • eliminate the need to collect tie lines thus reducing survey costs.
