Overview: This white paper deals with the DIAMINE project that indulges the problem of detection of minimum metal content mines which is approached with the use of a hand-held sensor based on the detection of low energy backscattered neutrons during irradiation of the soil with a radioactive neutron source. This paper basically highlights a device that should be sensitive to low atomic number elements present both in the explosive and in the plastic case of the mine which on coupling with a metal detector provides a double sensor in a single searching unit.
