Findings of Barringer Magnetic Survey<br />

1. Except for one location, the<br />

magnetic anomalies were<br />

associated with known<br />

occurrences of metal<br />

objects.<br />

2. At the one location in the<br />

southwest sector of the grid,<br />

the source of the magnetic<br />

anomaly was not known or<br />

defined.<br />

Note:<br />

Magnetic surveys define only<br />

ferrous metals (iron and steel)<br />

and are not able to detect nonferrous<br />

metals (silver and gold).<br />
