Induced Polarization

a Coast to Coast Collaboration

Innovation Powering Deep Exploration

Initial Exploration Services has partnered with Abitibi Geophysics to offer our clients in western Canada access Abitibi's world class, ground IP innovations.


IPower-3D ®:

IPower-3D ® is an innovation in ground IP acquired by Abitibi Geophysics. IPower-3D® is a true 3D array with 5 lines of receiver dipoles, connected along lines and between lines, measured simultaneously. Abitibi Geophysics has developed IPower-3D ® to investigate at depths of more than 600 m and penetrate thick overburden. 


OreVision® IP:

OreVision® IP is Abitibi's proprietary 2D survey technique capable of investigating 400% deeper with the same high resolution even through conductive overburden. Electrode configuration is extended to provide the depth of investigation while maintaining resolution.


IP Applications:

  • Detection of disseminated metallic luster minerals (veins or gold structures, etc.)
  • Detection of disseminated sulphides or veinlets surrounding a massive sulphide      deposit
  • Discrimination between non-mineralized conductors (faults, shear zones, etc.)
  • Detection of low or non-conductive solid sulphides (rich in sphalerite,      discontinuous mineralized strips, isolated sulphide grains, stockwork, etc.)
  • Mapping of alteration zones and structural elements controlling mineralization      (porphyry copper systems)
  • Mapping of clay minerals associated with kimberlites


Instruments and Software:

Iris Instruments:

  • TIPIX 2200, TIPIX 3000 transmitter
  • Elrec-Pro receiver

Instrumentation GDD:

  • Tx4 tramsmitter
  • GRx2 receiver


Abitibi's team of professional geophysicists will work with our field crews to plan the IP survey and will  process, model, invert and interpret the data IES crews collect. Deliverables include:

  • Image2D, Image3D
  • Res2Dinv, Res3Dinv
  • DC-IP-3D
  • Prosys II, Prosys III
