GeoResonance

GeoResonance is a company based in Adelaide, Australia. It claims to operate a technology that is capable of detecting subsurface deposits of minerals using satellite data to process multi-spectral images of a survey area, a technology with potential use in the fields of oil exploration and groundwater exploration and in the identification of potential resources for mining purposes.
In April 2014 executives at GeoResonance claimed that they had identified a characteristic anomaly in the Bay of Bengal which they believed could be the remains of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 which disappeared on 8 March 2014. They claimed to have identified this location by processing satellite imaging data collected on 5 March and 10 March in the Bay of Bengal which showed the presence of anomalies of aluminium, titanium, copper, and other substances consistent with the construction of the missing craft. The location of the deposit is distant from the final projected flight path of the plane as modelled by the satellite company Inmarsat whose data suggested that the plane most likely was lost in the Indian Ocean approximately eight hours after takeoff. Georesonance also claimed that it had identified the location of this deposit six weeks earlier, but that its private reports to investigating authorities and experts had been ignored.
GeoResonance claimed to have used a demilitarized technology called "nuclear magnetic resonance technology" to locate such deposits. GeoResonance claims the technology was developed by the former Soviet Union to remotely search for subsurface biological and chemical weapons, is not widely understood or accepted, and the Australian Joint Agency Coordination Center, which conducted the search operation for the plane and relied on Inmarsat data to structure its search parameters, stated: "The location specified by the GeoResonance report is not within the search arc derived from this data," and, "The joint international team is satisfied that the final resting place of the missing aircraft is in the southerly portion of the search arc". in 2005 which had been sunk by a German torpedo in the Black Sea, this claim has been substantiated by the Institute of Archaeology of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine, the Underwater Heritage Department . The specific location of the ship's hulk is known to staff at the Academy. However, in 2014 the Australian program Media Watch disputed this claim, saying the Armenia is still lost. It showed experts casting doubts on GeoResonance's technology, and its claims about finding Flight MH370.
GeoResonance holds patents on its technology, the patent numbers specified are listed on the Ukrainian patent database — 86496-UA, 35122-UA, 86497-UA, 55916-UA, 2007A000247-EU.
