Aerial scans of the Earth's crust 3,300 feet below ground are being used to seek out potential critical mineral deposits in Cowboy State. Using an array of sensors attached to aircraft flying overhead, geologists are scanning thousands of feet below Wyoming's surface with electromagnetic surveys – a prospecting method that reads the strength of the earth's subsurface magnetic field to identify likely locations of valuable metals and minerals like vanadium, niobium and t...
