The method is characterized by high spatial resolution and large probing depth. We discuss data acquisition and 3D IP imaging procedures using the central gradient array with variable electrode distances. A 3D geoelectric model was constructed and then numerically modeled. The data modeling results suggest that this method can capture the features of real geoelectric models. The method was applied to a polymetallic mine in Gansu Province. The results suggest that IP 3D tomography captures the distribution of resistivity and polarization of subsurface media, delineating the extension of abrupt interfaces, and identifies mineralization.展开更多

The resistivity imaging surveys carried out basically measure and map the resistivity of subsurface materials. Electrical imaging is an appropriate survey technique for areas with complex geology where the use of resistivity sounding and other techniques are unsuitable to provide detailed subsurface information. The purpose of electrical surveys is to determine the subsurface resistivity distribution by making measurements on the ground surface. The resistivity imaging measurement employing Wenner electrode configuration was carried out using an ABEM SAS 1000 terrameter and electrode selector system ES464. The field survey was conducted along four profiles which provide a continuous coverage of the resistivity imaging below surface. The surface soil material is mainly clayey silt. The results showed that the layers associated with the low resistivities （Ωm） are located at depth ranging from 2 m to 28 m. This low resistivity values are associated with zone of water saturated weathered layer and fractures. The results showed that the thickness of residual soil is about 0.5-2.55 m. Borehole data indicated that the depth of bedrock is about 10 m and the groundwater level is ranging from 8.73 m to 8.54 m.展开更多
