The Beep Mat Documents Step by Step

How to Use the Beep Mat Step by Step

The BM4+ is a powerful miniaturized electromagnetic survey instrument that efficiently and inexpensively detects conductive and magnetic outcrops or boulders hidden under up to 3.0 meter (10 ft) of overburden.

The targets are quickly delineated and sampled for assay to determine if they are valuable showings or barren sulfide/graphitic conductors.


Step 1 - Make sure that you have all components shown on the photograph below.

A - Reading Unit
B - Probe + cable
C - Charger
D - Spare cable
E - Carrying bag
F - User's guide
G - Calibration disks

.

 


Step 2 - Planning of the day



Step 3 - Initialization of the Beep Mat

 


Step 4 - The all-terrain vehicle carries the drill and the dynamite while the Beep Mat surveys

 


Step 5 - Use a Beep Mat to sample conductors (sulfides, graphite, etc.) and choose among your assays the ones that warrant diamond drilling !


Step 6 - Your Beep Mat beeps ! A conductor has been localized.

 


Step 7 - The overburden is deep. No problem, 10 sticks of dynamite will clear it.

 

 


Step 8 - It is done. There is only 4 inches of rusty dirt over the sulfides

 


Step 9 - Holes are drilled in the bedrock with a gas plugger.

 


Step 10 - The fuse is attached to the primacord. Red ribbons mark the limit of the conductor.

 


Step 11 - Fresh sulfides are now examined. A 10-kg sample is taken for assays

 


Step 12 - The GPS localizes the sampling site.

 


Step 13 - Once the conductor has been sampled, go find the next one... When assay results are in, it is time to select sites for detailed trenching and/or diamond drilling.

 


Step 14 - In th evening, the Beep Mat traverses and sampled sites of the day are drawn.
