Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for detecting characteristics of a coal deposit in a formation. There is provided a plurality of electrodes; a signal transmitter that transmits a signal into the formation, by way of a pair of transmitting electrodes; a signal receiver that receives a signal from the formation, by way of a pair of receiving electrodes, the received signal reflective of induced polarization caused by the transmitted signal; and at least one processor configured to: process the received signal to measure an induced polarization response of the coal deposit; and based on the induced polarization response, determine at least one characteristic of the coal deposit, the at least one characteristic comprising at least one of a location, a size, and a quality of the coal deposit. |
