Investigation Of Magnetic Anomalies Of Ubiaja And Illushi Areas In Northern Anambra Basin Using Aeromagnetic Data

ABSTRACT The aeromagnetic data of Ubiaja and illushi area that fall within latitude to and longitude to were interpreted qualitatively and quantitatively. The qualitative interpretation revealed that the area is intensely faulted with major anomalies (faults) trending in the northeast and southwest directions. Standard Euler deconvolution, source parameter imaging (SPI), spectral analysis and modelling (forward and inverse) methods were employed in the quantitative interpretation aimed at determining the depth or thickness of the sedimentary basin, magnetic susceptibilities and type of mineral…
