EMinar3.17: Bruce McMonnies - UTEM

Yves Lamontagne was born in Quebec and was one of 10 siblings. Yves' favourite colour was blue and he was a proud and ardent supporter of the Montreal Canadiens. His favourite drinking hole was the Toucan Pub in downtown Kingston. Yves simply loved solving problems. A humble, low key achiever and visionary. A brilliant man. Yves Lamontagne, under his supervisor, Gordon West, invented a way to measure the Step Response of the ground. He designed the system, built the system and carried out several case studies as part of his PhD. This showed everyone that he was unique as he did the equivalent of 3 PhD degrees in the same time as everyone else did one. The system was called UTEM 1. Yves then cannibalized this system to build UTEM 2. Lamontagne Geophysics Ltd. was founded in 1979 by Dr. Yves Lamontagne to pursue a new direction in electromagnetic geophysical exploration. The commercial expression of our technical development is the UTEM system (University of Toronto Electro-Magnetics). The UTEM system differs from conventional TEM systems since it was designed to measure the step response of the earth (other TEM systems measure the pulse response) by transmitting a unique UTEM waveform. In designing UTEM 3 the first thing he did was design the Receiver box and then made everything else fit inside. He was an amazing entrepreneur as he struck an agreement with Cominco to be funded. Three UTEM 3 systems were built where on completion 2 systems went to Cominco and Yves remained with one. He then built with his partner, Alec Hutchinson, many more systems. The induction coil measured a single component and it was ingenious that the design enabled the coil to be oriented in any direction with extra readings to measure all 3 components and he could also measure the 2 orthogonal Electric fields to measure Resistivity which was coined as ISR (Induced Source Resistivity). In the eighties many surveys were completed all over the world.
