Resistivity Measurements at Fort Stanton Cave New Mexico

Abstract

Earth resistivity measurements near Fort Stanton Cave were begun shortly after the discovery of the Snowy River passage in 2001. Resistive anomalies were frequently detected ahead of the progress of underground exploration and survey of the cave passages, and later shown to represent cave passages when the survey lines passed through the anomalies. Many other anomalies are present between and adjacent to the passages currently known.
