An experimental survey with Very Low Frequency Electromagnetic (VLF-EM) equipment was carried out to test its operational efficiency and to ascertain its efficacy in geological mapping for the Antarctic environment. Vertical component magnetic measurements were also carried out along selected traverses to infer the subsurface geology and structure. A reconnaissance survey of the Orvin mountains revealed a highly concentrated zone of radioactivity which appears to be quite significant. (i) Insitu measurements of physical properties of rocks from Schirmacher and Humboldt regions of East Antarctica. (ii) Assessing the role of VLF-EM method for geological mapping under Antarctic environmental conditions. (iii) Geo-thermal logging (depending on the availability of a borehole) to assess intrusive activity.
