Abstract
A method for determining permittivity of a rock formation mineral matrix includes measuring a permittivity of a sample of the rock. A fractional volume of pore space in the sample is determined. A mixing law and a permittivity of a fluid filling the pore space are used to determine the permittivity of the formation mineral matrix from the measured permittivity.
