Abstract
We introduce the multicomponent induction logging method to model mineral deposit of limited distribution in order to realize fine evaluation of the solid mineral deposit. In this study, the azimuthal and radial detection characteristics of the components were studied using numerical simulation. The results show that XZ- and ZX-components have the farthest depth of investigation and also exhibits azimuthal sensitivity, which could be used to determine the relative position between an ore body and borehole.
