The present work reports two NMR study at 7 Tesla and 0.1 Tesla (high and low magnetic field) on ideal soil sample. A number of sand-clay phantoms have been used, each with a different amount of water (from saturation value to minimum concentration necessary to obtain an NMR signal) and with a different concentration of clay. Basic NMR protocol was employed, the Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill sequence (CPMG) used for determining the bulk T2 value for echo time(TE) of 150 ms. This parameter is affected by the soil properties like: pore-size distribution, dry bulk density, water content, magnetic susceptibility, etc. In addition, imaging experiments were applied using the 4.7 Tesla magnets and the multi-echo-multi-slice sequence (memshrp) for a coaxial sand-clay sample, trying to map and estimate the water distribution in the sample.
