A transient excited magnetic dipole immersed in a conducting half-space is considered. Explicit results for the field waveforms observed on the surface are obtained for the case where the exciting current is an exponential time function. It is shown that the shape of the waveform is diagnostic of the relative location of the buried source. The results have possible application in mine rescue operations.
