A fixed d.c. emitter introduces a current into an isotropic heterogeneous soil with a plane surface, in which the conductivity varies according to the relation (k is a positive constant). We determine the vertical magnetic component at the surface of the soil (z = 0) for the case in which assumes the form:

(Ci, Cii, positive constants)

where Ri and are the distances between the measuring point and the "conductivity center" Si. Using a classical procedure and by calculating a double integral we also obtain the horizontal magnetic components.
Several practical numberical examples are presented in the form of maps of isodynamic lines in the plane z = 0 for the distribution of the anomalous components Za, Xa and Ya as well as for the distribution of the total horizontal component Ha and of the total field |Ha| .
