In the course of the interpretation of an aero‐magnetic survey of Algeria, techniques based on spectral analysis were found to be quite useful in the determination of volcanic thicknesses and the resolution of underlying structural trends in a mineralized region near Silet. One‐dimensional analysis, applied to a series, of traverses crossing the area, indicates the average thickness of volcanics to be about 100 m. Two‐dimensional spectra were used to design appropriate filters for attenuating anomalies from shallow sources thereby enhancing the responses of the underlying regional structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
