ABSTRACT: We carried out a geomagnetic investigation using Iphone
4S? integrated magnetic sensor. The investigated area is a faulted
sedimentary terrain crossed by basaltic volcanic veins. The obtained magnetic
anomaly map shows the limits between the sedimentary rocks and a magnetic body
at a given depth. These results are compared to the geometry of the magnetic
body as shown by geological maps. The results seem to be accurate for the determination
of geometry and the depth of the magnetic body.
