An improved seismic methods comprises the steps of generating seismic waves by exploding an explosive composition in a subterranean formation, wherein the explosive composition comprises a first explosive material and an oxidizabe metal material, and detecting the seismic waves and/or reflections thereof with seismic detectors. Also disclosed are geophysical survey systems that comprises a seismic energy source comprising a first explosive material and an oxidizable metal material, the seismic energy source being located in a subterranean formation, and a plurality of seismic detectors that are adapted to detect seismic waves generated when the seismic energy source explodes and reflections of these waves. A method of preparing an explosive composition is also disclosed.

L'invention porte sur un procédé de prospection sismique consistant à produire des ondes sismiques en faisant exploser dans une formations souterraine une composition explosive comportant un premier matériau explosif et un matériau de métal oxydable, puis à détecter les ondes sismiques et/ou leurs réflexions à l'aide de détecteurs sismiques. L'invention porte également sur un système de prospection géophysique utilisant une source d'énergie sismique, consistant en un premier matériau explosif et un matériau de métal oxydable, qu'on place dans une formation souterraine et un ensemble de détecteurs sismiques détectant les ondes sismiques produites lors de l'explosion de ladite source, et les réflexions de ces ondes. L'invention porte en outre sur un procédé de préparation d'une composition explosive.
