  • Abstract
    The possibility is discussed of locating miners, after a disaster, by an electromagnetic technique. Specifically, it is suggested that the complex ratio of the horizontal and the vertical field components be measured. The limitation due to the finite conductivity of the overburden is also considered and shown to be a not insurmountable problem.
