Terrestrial aeromagnetic survey of waste deposits: A pilot study in Gualeguaychú, Entre Ríos

This paper presents the results of the application of terrestrial magnetometry in the study of waste deposits. The area chosen for the pilot study was located toward the south of the town of Gualeguaychú, in the southeastern Entre Rios province. This location was selected because it was known that o...
