Case HistoriesPosted on
Mundell conducted a groundwater resources survey for a town which was experiencing water shortages, utilizing EM34 deep conductivity mapping. The conductivity survey was used locate favorable areas to drill. Each new production well location encountered more than 20 ft. of additional sand and gravel that had not been encountered before, and produced in excess of 800 gpm……Read More »

During a preliminary investigation prior to the construction of an industrial facility, Mundell personnel completed a multi-faceted electromagnetic (EM) geophysical survey to locate and characterize concealed metallic objects such as underground storage tanks, process piping and utilities, as well as to map variations in the possible fill materials present from any former operations. Based on anomalies discovered, Mundell provided cost estimates for waste materials handling to the client for project planning purposes, and final estimated quantities were within 5 % of those determined from the geophysical survey……Read More »

Mundell personnel completed a multi-faceted geophysical survey of a 100-year old brownfield site, which had been used in the past as a warehouse, bar, restaurant, bakery, and dentist office, in order to identify suspected impacted and hazardous materials that may have been buried on the site. Using the quantities of materials estimated from the geophysical survey and the types of materials found at the site within the test pits, a cost estimate for developing the property ranged from about $430,000 to $600,000. This included the costs of excavation, transportation and landfill disposal of materials……Read More »

Mundell used several geophysical methods to map out the extents of an old cemetery. This approach provided value both in terms of preserving the identity and locations of the known graves, and in offering insight into the locations of some unmarked graves. It was determined that high resolution conductivity mapping with a Geonics EM-38 combined with gridded GPR mapping appeared to have the best potential for mapping unmarked graves……Read More »
