Abstract
Mine detection is one of the major fields that has been improving since the end of World War II. Due to the importance of saving lives, it's a necessity to detect a mine before it is triggered. The variety of mine types created the variety of ways and methods to detect them The most commonly used method to detect mines is using a metal detector. However, sometimes metal detectors are not ideal to be used for mine detection due to lack of conductive materials in the mine. The objective is to develop a method to detect mines from both metallic and non-metallic materials, by using a gamma ray emitter source and a GAM OS simulation toolkit to simulate this situation. Back scattered photon counting was the method used, which works for mines made of both light and heavy materials.
