Regional Geoelectrical Survey Across Some Parts of Anambra and Niger Delta Basins, South-Eastern Nigeria.
A regional geoelectrical study was embarked upon covering some major towns within the Niger Delta and Anambra basin. Some of the towns include; Owerri, Umuahia, Ohafia, Aba, Umuosu, Ngwa, Mbaise, Okigwe, Lekwesi, etc. About 100 Vertical Electrical Sounding points were established along two long profiles running perpendicularly to each other at North-South and East-West directions covering a distance of about 110km in each traverse. The maximum electrode spread was 500metres, AB/2. The schlumb...
Application of Very Low Frequency- Electromagnetic (VLF-EM) Method to Map Fractures/Conductive Zones in Auchi South western Nigeria.
Geophysical survey involving very low frequency electromagnetic technique was applied to investigate possible geologic features like fractured / conductive zones in Auchi and its environs in Edo state, Southwestern Nigeria. The study area is located within latitudes 7o05’ N.to 7o10’N. and longitudes 6o11’E to 6o22’E The geologic Formations outcroping in the area are mainly Ajali and Nsukka. Three profiles were taken along the roads from Auchi to Igara, Auchi to Fugar and Auchi to Ulok...
