Center for Gravity, Electrical, and Magnetic Studies

Welcome to the Center for Gravity, Electrical, and Magnetic Studies (CGEM) in the Department of Geophysics at Colorado School of Mines.

CGEM is an academic research center focusing on the quantitative interpretation of gravity, magnetic, electrical, electromagnetic, and radiometric data in applied geophysics. The center brings together the diverse expertise of faculty and students across these geophysical methods, working to advance state-of-the-art geophysical data interpretation in response to problems of societal importance.

CGEM’s research focuses on the modeling, processing, inversion, and interpretation of applied geophysical data, with key applications in mineral exploration, oil and gas exploration and production, carbon storage monitoring, and environmental issues.
