Geophysical Investigation of Ground Water Potential in Basement Terrain, Okene North Central, Nigeria
Journal Title: International journal of Emerging Trends in Science and Technology - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate the ground water potential in some selected locations in Ageva, Okene district of Nigeria. A total of 8 vertical electrical sounding was conducted using the Abem Terrameter (SAS 1000).The data obtained were subjected to interpretation by partial curve matching and then by computer iteration and the result correlated with records from existing wells. A total of 4 geoelectric layers namely: top soil, weathered layer, sandy clay Fresh basement was delineated in this study. The depth to aquifer was obtained between 5.0 to 18.0 m from the surface. While the resistivity of the aquifer ranged between 33.0 to 273 Ωm. The area is a high ground water potential especially since there is thick overburden and highly fractured basement in the subsurface
