Spectrem Air
With a DC3 fixed-wing aircraft and range of airborne geophysical equipment, including its Squid magnetic gradiometer sensor, Johannesburg-based airborne geophysics technology provider Spectrem Air is well equipped to deliver integrated three-dimensional (3D) solutions for geological mapping, minerals exploration targeting, as well as geohydrological and geo-engineering applications.
The company, which leases a hangar at Lanseria International Airport, collects high-resolution electromagnetic, magnetic and radiometric data concurrently, using its SpectremPlus system. It also offers equipment design, the acquisition and processing of airborne data, the production of geophysical results and two-dimensional or 3D geological products for mineral exploration. One of the strengths of the technology is geological mapping in areas under cover.
