ABSTRACT:
A source of fast neutrons is pulsed to irradiate the formations surrounding a borehole with neutrons to produce inelastic neutron scattering in metallic materials located within the formations. Gamma-rays emitted from the formations in response to the inelastic neutron scattering from the metallic materials is detected as an indication of the presence of such materials within the formations.
