Magnetic susceptibility values for common mineral and rock types (Sharma, 1997).

Mineral or rock type Magnetic susceptibility (k x 10−6 SI)

Granite (with magnetite) 20–40,000

Slates 0–1200

Basalt 500–80,000

Oceanic basalt 300–36,000

Limestone (with magnetite) 10–25,000

Gneiss 0–3000

Sandstone 35–950

Hematite (ore) 420–10,000

Magnetite (ore) 7×104–14×106

Magnetite (crystal) 150×106

A magnetic susceptibility value describes how much a material becomes magnetized when exposed to an applied magnetic field, essentially indicating its tendency to be attracted or repelled by a magnet; it's a dimensionless quantity calculated by dividing the magnetization of a material by the applied magnetic field strength, with a positive value signifying paramagnetic behavior (attracted to a magnetic field) and a negative value indicating diamagnetic behavior (repelled by a magnetic field).

"magnetic susceptibility" measures how easily a material becomes magnetized when exposed to an external magnetic field, whereas "magnetic permeability" describes how readily a material allows magnetic field lines to pass through it, essentially indicating its ability to form an internal magnetic field within itself when exposed to an applied magnetic field; in simpler terms, susceptibility is a measure of how much a material is magnetized, while permeability is a measure of how well a material allows magnetism to pass through it.

A material's permeability indicates how easily an external magnetic field can induce an internal field in the material. The stronger the internal field, the stronger the force of attraction. A material's permeability is not constant but rather changes based on several factors.

A recurring fault zone is good for changes based on a number of factors. The internal field will change effecting the force of attraction in this zone. Very hard to measure close up for man yet nature will leave traces in each effected rock zone that can be looked at.
 

Magnetite properties

It is one of the most abundant metal oxides, and its crystal structure contains both the ferrous (Fe+2) and ferric (Fe+3) forms of iron ions. A complex pattern of electrons between the two forms of iron is the source of its magnetic nature.

Magnetite crystals usually only occur when magma cools slowly enough for crystals to form and settle out of the magma. These crystals are typically octahedrons to dodecahedrons (eight-sided to twelve-sided shapes) that may exhibit fine lines (known as ‘striations’) on some surfaces.

Which all means.....what? :dontknow:

For us, none of this means diddly unless we can apply it to the location of precious metals. Gold and Silver do not react to magnetic fields.

FYI: "Susceptibility" also applies when a device malfunctions due to insufficient internal shielding that allow the ingress of EMI.

What about Resonant Frequencies . I understand that all things respond to different unique Resonant Frequencies . No matter if they're magnetic or not . :coffee2:

From the web:

"There is no "resonant frequency" of gold. Gold does have an NMR frequency, which is 1.729MHz. All NMR frequencies are dependent on the ambient magnetic field, and gold's 1.729MHz is valid for a magnetic field of 2.35 Teslas, which is 45,000 times stronger than a typical Earth field strength. But there is no resonant frequency which, if you broadcast it, will cause gold to resonate."

FYI, if you walk into close range of a 2.0 Tesla magnetic field, any metal in your body is going to get ripped out. Also, that magnet will weigh in the neighborhood of 15,000 lbs.

Here's the big question...and I'll do my best to try and make sense..

When you radiate a specific frequency at various precious metals, do the metals emit any type of wavelength, particle or molecule, unique to that metal and different from the radiated frequency, and that can be scientifically measured?

I would submit that the technology most likely already exists, but may not be available to the public.

If I'm correct, is this not the same operating principle that applies to Long Range Locators (LRL's)?

Electromagnetic Interference will travel by both radiated or conducted paths.
In theory each can be measured however most likely not by the general public.
Any theory that helps one to see these traces can be useful.

Gold and Silver do not react to magnetic fields.
Alloyed gold and silver can have some trace reaction to a magnetic field.
Again the general public is not likely to be able to read this type of reaction.

This is just theory talk in general at this point. :dontknow:

Question can a quartz mineral zone / body generate a field strength near 2.35 Teslas under the right conditions?

Question can a magnetite mineral zone / body generate a field strength near 2.35 Teslas under the right conditions?

A magnetite magnet of around 15,000 lbs. in nature is a small one. Just thinking out loud here.

I should add that it is not hard to find much larger magnets in the rock

Not to mention how about a number of pulsing magnets to help move some minerals very quickly from one to the other?

Changing electrical currents and voltages that can cause EMI should effect NMR frequencies however should not over come the field strength of 2.35 Teslas. If this is the case the field strength of 2.35 or more Teslas will leave traces or bread crumbs to look at.
 

What about Resonant Frequencies . I understand that all things respond to different unique Resonant Frequences . No matter if they're magnetic or not . :coffee2:
I'm thinking or wondering if EMI's can get the resonant frequencies going?
 

So when it comes to traces of the history of past magnetic fields, common basalts act as a “magnetic recorder” comes to mind here:

Environment of crystallization and cooling rate are major interrelated factors influencing subsequent changes in the mineralogy of the primary Fe−Ti oxides and resulting magnetic properties. This has been tested by studying the variation of magnetization and some of its parameters in three different basalt rock units: a dike, 180 cm, and two lava flows, 3 m and 33 m thick, respectively. Grain size and oxidation state of the titanomagnetites control the variation of magnetization in these basalt units.

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF00878944#:~:text=Summary,magnetization in these basalt units.

Earth's magnetic field history through paleomagnetic studies; essentially, basalt acts as a "magnetic recorder" of the past magnetic field when it solidifies.

PALAEOMAGNETISM

T.H. Torsvik, in Encyclopedia of Geology, 2005

https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetary-sciences/paleomagnetism#:~:text=Palaeomagnetism is the study of,its polarity in the past

Basalt can acquire strong magnetic signatures as it cools
Ferromagnetic minerals such as magnetite acquire a permanent magnetization when they crystallize as components of igneous rock.

Magmatism lifespan: The Tarim Large Igneous Province had a magmatism lifespan of approximately 20 million years.

That is a large magnet for around 20 million years. Should generate some Tesla force from time to time depending on near by events.
 

You are confusing Magmatism and Magnetism.

And all of this, combined, don't mean dick when it comes to locating precious metals.

"Magmatism" refers to the geological process of magma formation, movement, and solidification within the Earth's crust, while "magnetism" is the physical phenomenon where objects attract or repel each other due to magnetic forces generated by the movement of electric charges within them; essentially, magmatism deals with molten rock movement, while magnetism deals with magnetic fields and forces.

https://www.google.com/search?q=mag...CDcyMzhqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Both forces have effects.
I should point out that before the magma formation is finished the magnetism force / events will have effects on any iron within the formation. This points out that the two forces can overlap in time leaving a trail or trace to look at as an event or even events over time.

Both of the forces are looked at when it comes to finding mineral bodies etc..
