Mount-Sopris - Model 2LSA-1000 -Large Crystal Spectral Gamma Probes
The 2LSA-1000 probe measures the amount of gamma radiation occurring naturally within the formations crossed by a borehole and counts the number of gamma emissions associated with each energy level. Gamma rays are produced mainly by isotopes of potassium, thorium, and uranium and their decay products. The spectral gamma ray log is widely used in the mining and environmental industries for the identification of lithology, correlation between boreholes, and clay content analyses.
The larger crystal used within the 2LSA-1000 allows better counting statistics resulting in improved quantitative analysis in uranium applications, isotope ratios, and clay typing. This tool provides real time temperature compensation, as calibration coefficients determined during factory testing are stored within the tool. Spontaneous potential and single point resistivity are also measured.
