From October 16, 2023 until October 27th, 2023, Xcalibur Multiphysics will be conducting a low-level helicopter geophysical survey in Albany County (South and East of Laramie). Xcalibur will be using a Resolve electromagnetic device that will be slung beneath the aircraft. These flights will be close to the ground but do not emit harmful electromagnetic energy. Please don’t be alarmed if you see this survey in progress. Xcalibur provided a photo of the Resolve electromagnetic device from a previous survey.
