Earth scientists test mercury vapor detector for buried mineral finds
U S Geologic Survey director Dr Thomas B Nolan said US and Russian scientists are developing a super sensitive portable device to detect tiny mercury vapor in air as a marker for mineral deposits. The instrument could locate copper, lead, zinc and other metals by sensing mercury emissions. Nolan cited research in California's San Joaquin Valley showing land subsidence linked to groundwater withdrawal, with tiltmeter data and a 210 foot rise above the injection well.
