The deposit is situated in southeastern New South Wales at Lat.35°04*S, Long.1A9°34*E. (Fig.l) The first phase of testing proved up a body of poljmietallic massive sulphides and an adjacent zone of dominantly copper ore. The massive sulphides body consisted of about 6.3 million tonnes of copper, lead and zinc ore (1.7% Cu: 5.5% Pb; 14.4% Zn) and was the main target for geophysical investigation. The copper ore zone contains about 3.7 million tonnes averaging about 1.9% Cu, 0.1%Pb, 0.5% Zn in a number of ore shoots both along strike from and below the massive sulphides. Subsequent drilling indicated several concealed bodies of massive sulphides, separate from the first discovered body but these are at depths of more than 200m and hence too deep to have influenced the geophysical investigations.  <...>

Every researcher in the applied sciences who has analyzed  data has practiced inverse theory. Inverse theory is simply the set of methods used to extract useful inferences about the world from physical measurements. The fitting of a straight line to data involves a simple application of inverse theory. Tomography, popularized by the physician’s CT and MRI scanners, uses it on a more sophisticated level.

We make discoveries about reality by examining the dierence between theory and practice. There is a well-developed theory about the dierence between theory and practice, and it is called \geophysical inverse theory". In this book we investigate the practice of the dierence between theory and practice. As the folklore tells us, there is a big dierence. There are already many books on the theory, and often as not, they end in only one or a few applications in the author's specialty. In this book on practice, we examine data and results from many diverse applications. I have adopted the discipline of suppressing theoretical curiosities until I nd data that requires it (except for a few concepts at chapter ends). <...>

This book is intended as a comprehensive survey of the entire field of geophysical exploration. The author has endeavored to present the subject in broad perspective, emphasizing the relations, differences, common features, and, above all, the fundamentals of geophysical methods. The material is divided into two parts of six chapters each. The first part, written in elementary language, addresses those desiring an insight into the working principles and geological applications of geophysical methods. It is intended for individuals in executive and geologic advisory capacity and for persons not directly concerned with field or laboratory operations.
