A method of determining a characteristic comprising irradiating the formation with high energy neutrons and detecting neutrons scattered by the formation having energies above epithermal to determine the nature of the formation matrix. Epithermal neutrons can also be detected to determine formation porosity. Apparatus comprises a high energy neutron source, typically a D-T accelerator producing 14 MeV neutrons, and detectors comprising 4He filled proportional counters far detecting neutrons having energies above epithermal and 3He filled proportional counters for detecting epithermal neutrons.
