Abstract
Under the Canadian Lithoprobe program, conventional low‐ (10–55 Hz) and high‐frequency (30–140 Hz) vibroseis reflection surveys were conducted across the Sudbury Structure. The main objective of the study was to evaluate the performance of seismic exploration techniques in a complex, mainly crystalline geological setting. The Sudbury experiment demonstrated that high input frequencies can be preserved through appropriate acquisition and processing procedures. Consequently, the high‐frequency seismic data proved capable of imaging complex shallow crustal structures not ‘seen’ by the conventional low‐frequency seismic survey. In crystalline environments, improved high‐frequency seismic exploration technology will provide a better link between seismic images and surface geology.
