If so, then calling this a voltage measurement is probably a misnomer, in the strictest sense of the accepted definition of the word voltage. I'm not sure exactly what to call it, but it does not seem to fit the definition of voltage very well.
Do you imagine this phenomenon to be around the buried metal as some type of field; and would it be strictly electrical in nature, or does it have an electrochemical component?
Also, have you verified the existence of this phenomenon with ordinary conventional instrumentation, and if so; how did you measure it?

I use
voltage because during detection increases the voltage in the detector circuit. Also must be electromagnetic and RF associated, because many methods I used was positive in most or minus grade. And maybe has electrochemical component by the corrossion. But gold presents low or no presents corrossion, but I think a kind of electrical field. I think this acts as a battery in the soil.
You can check with a simple 100 microamp meter type "needle" in situ, well remarcable over big old targets.
