Newer results of Monte Carlo inversion of IP data in water base protection and ore exploration

The paper presents the latest results of Monte Carlo inversion of IP data in the areas of water base protection and ore exploration. The method of determining the time constant spectrum using Monte Carlo inversion and the parameters characterizing the degree of environmental contaminations and ore deposition are presented. Among the field applications in Hungary, the investigation of the ionic pollution of the Ráckeve water base and the characterization of the Felsőtelekes waste dump of the Rudabánya iron ore mine are presented. In addition to these, the paper presents the investigation of ore deposition in the area of a gold mine in Mongolia using the Monte Carlo inversion of multi-electrode pole-dipole IP method.
