RaptorFTEM™: a hybrid Time Domain Transient Electromagnetic System
Advanced Geophysics Inc. has innovated on Time Domain Systems to produce their line of RaptorFTEM™ Time Domain systems for use in Mineral Exploration and Environmental/Geotechnical applications. Our systems are multifrequency which means that they are capable of acquiring data at different levels of the subsurface simultaneously. Our patent-pending technologies offer a best-in-class opportunity for organizations to explore for a variety of minerals or conduct environmental monitoring.
The RaptorFTEM™ systems are designed to be flown with magnetometers, radiometers and gravimiters which can enhance the understanding of the EM responses.

Advanced Geophysics Benefits
Resolution Revolution
RaptorFTEM™ systems have some of the highest data resolution available in the industry due to our technology’s simultaneous shallow and deep subsurface imaging capabilities.
Multiple System Simultaneous Deployments
Deploy multiple RaptorFTEM™ systems simultaneously so you have the flexibility to adjust your depth of investigation focus as your survey collects data.
Unique EM Technologies
Our multiple patent pending technologies are not available in any other system! The RaptorFTEM™ systems offer unprecedented insight into subsurface exploration and mapping.
Deep TDEM Exploration
Time domain electromagnetic exploration has a reputation for only sensing shallow subsurface but our technology allows us to see nearly 1km deep in the right geologic conditions.
Agile Decision Making
With near real time ability to interpret data, surveys can be flown coarsely on one day and then followed up with other RaptorFTEM™ systems and/or finer grid spacing to gather data where you need it most!
Frequency AND Time Domain
RaptorFTEM™ hybrid systems are capable of acquiring both frequency and time domain data.
This is possible because of full waveform data recording and unique data processing.
Resources We Help Locate
Time Domain Electromagnetic systems are useful for detecting differences in conductivity and the technology can be leveraged to directly or indirectly detect many different types of resources. The RaptorFTEM™ systems are designed to be flown with magnetometers, radiometers and gravimiters which can enhance the understanding of the EM responses. *Our technology is not limited to locating only these resources or applications.
Gold is a highly conductive metal easily amenable to time domain exploration
Time domain can be used for environmental monitoring.
Kimberlite pipes can be detected indirectly with time domain exploration due to the conductive clays and associated minerals.
Copper is a highly conductive metal easily amenable to time domain exploration
Uranium is not conductive but it can be indirectly detected depending on where it is deposited.
Freshwater and saltwater can be detected and monitored but how well depends on differences in conductivity of the host rocks.
Lithium is a good conductor and its brines and host pegmatites can be detected with time domain exploration.
Potassium is a good conductor and its brines can be detected with time domain exploration.
Graphite is a good conductor and can be detected with time domain methods.
Time domain can be utilized to discover Unexploded Explosive Ordnance.
Hydrocarbons are usually not conductive at shallow depths and they can be indirectly detected.
Silver is a highly conductive metal easily amenable to time domain exploration
