Geoelectrical Survey Of Ground Water In Some Parts Of Kebbi State Nigeria, A Case Study Of Federal Polytechnic Bye-pass Birnin Kebbi And Magoro Primary Health Center Fakai Local Government

Abstract Schlumberger array is the most commonly used among other arrays for Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) and  it requires large spacing at both ends for deeper subsurface information. The problem of limited space for spreading in built up areas could lead to incomplete information from deeper depth. The Geolectrical survey involving electrical resistivity  methods has been carried out at Birnin Kebbi and Fakai Local Government Area in Northern Nigeria with the view to delineate the Geoelectrical characteristics of basement complex and sedimentary formation to evaluate it ground water p…
