ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a land seismic exploration method and apparatus employing a plurality of elongated tubes each having a flexible wall for containing a volume of liquid explosive therein. Each tube is adapted to be detachably connected to either a detonating device for exploding the liquid explosive therein thereby creating a seismic explosion, or to a pressure transducer for monitoring the pressure changes in the liquid explosive caused by the detected seismic pressure waves.
