Book Description
Presents & discusses findings of a study to determine whether differences in petrophysical characteristics previously observed between rocks from the Giant and Con mines were associated with the presence of soluble mineral phases in the rocks. The study involved monitoring the resistivity of water used to immerse samples from the two mines (basalt and sericite schist), over a period of 340 hours, after vacuum saturation. The results show the differences between the resistivity-time curves of the water in which the samples were immersed. Suggestions for further studies are presented in the conclusion.
