Badmus, O.D. Akinyemi, J.A. Olowofela and G.M. Folarin Department of Physics, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria Corresponding Author: B.S. Badmus Abstract A 49-electrode system was used in the Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) survey in three locations with each location marked into 7 by 7 square grids for the electrodes using 1.0m, 3.0m and 5.0m unit electrode spacings in succession. The pole-pole electrode array was used with the two remote electrodes placed at distances of 23m, 40m and 65m from the grids with 1.0m, 3.0m and 5.0m unit electrode spacing respectively to reduce their telluric effects on the apparent resistivity values measured. The data obtained were analysed and 3D models of the subsurface were generated using 3D inversion software called RES3DI V and the Slicer Dicer software. The result from this study was found to be similar to those from the studies for which multichannel 3D equipment were used. The results of the interpretation revealed the Lithology to compose lateritic soil, sand, sandstone, sandy clay and clay. The results also showed that the three different unit electrode spacing displayed similar geo-electric models and the electrode spacing determines the depths of investigation. Geological structures are 3-Dimensional (3D) in nature, thus 1-Dimensional and 2-Dimensional surveys cannot adequately model them. However, sophisticated 3D survey equipment is very expensive and not readily available. This prompted the use of a single-channel SAS 300B Terrameter to obtain a 3D model of the subsurface. Keywords: resistivity, tomography, 3D models, electrode spacing, geo-electric layer I TRODUCTIO Geological structures are three-dimensional (3D) in nature and so one-dimensional or twodimensional survey cannot be adequately accurate in modeling them. However sophisticated 3D survey equipments are very expensive. This study was carried out to show that a single-channel Terrameter can be used to obtain a 3D model of the subsurface. There are numbers of mineral resources beneath the earth surface. Detecting them and predicting their qualities and quantities is of importance to both government and individuals, like exploration geophysicists, hydro-geophysicists and the like. A number of methods have been used for this exploration purpose, such as magnetic method, gravity methods, seismic methods - seismic reflection/refraction, electrical and electromagnetic methods, induced polarization, etc. These methods can as well be used for environmental investigations, surveys and monitoring. Of interest in this work is the electrical resistivity method which makes use of measurements on ground surface to reveal subsurface resistivity distributions. This could be one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D). Extensive work has been done using 1D resistivity surveying (Jones and Hockey 1964, Ajayi and Adegoke 1988; Okwueze and Ezeanyim 1991; Ojelabi et al. 2002). 2D imaging surveys have been carried out for purposes such as the detection of leakage of pollutants from landfill sites, areas with undulating limestone bedrock, mapping of the overburden thickness over bedrock (Ritz et al. 1999), leakage of water from dams, saline water intrusion in coastal aquifers, freshwater aquifers (Dahlin and Owen 1998), monitoring of groundwater tracers (Nyquist et al.1999) and mapping of unconsolidated sediments (Christensen and Sorensen 1994). The resistivity imaging method has also been used in underwater surveys in lakes and dams. Even areas of moderately complex geology have been mapped using the 2D surveying (Griffiths and Barker 1993). Since all geological structures are 3D in nature, 3D resistivity survey using a 3D interpretation model would be most appropriate to get the most accurate result (Loke 2004). 3D resistivity survey is expensive and takes time, especially when the area to be surveyed is large. However, the development of multi-channel resistivity survey instruments, faster microcomputers and inversion software now make it possible to take more than one reading at a time thereby reducing survey time, and carry out inversion of very large data sets in reasonable time (Griffiths et al.1990; Loke and Barker 1996b). Three array types are commonly used for 3D resistivity surveying; the pole-pole, pole-dipole and dipole-dipole. The reason for this is that other arrays have poorer data coverage near the edges of the survey grid (Loke 2000). 680
2 THE STUDY AREA This survey was carried out at three different locations within the University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (UNAAB), a basement complex terrain of southwestern Nigeria (figure 1.0). UNAAB is located within longitudes to East and latitudes to North respectively. It has coordinates of m North and m East (Ibikunle 1998; Akinsola 2004). Each location formed a grid as shown in figure 2.0, described by parameters like elevation above sea level, longitudes and latitudes as follows: Location 1 (Opposite Chief Olatunde Abudu Building): 152m, N, E; 153m, N, E; 153m, N, E; 152m, N, E. Location 2 (Behind Extension and Research Building): 151m, N, E; 146m, N, E; 150m, N, E; 149m, N, E. Location 3 (Behind College of atural Sciences): 145m, N, E; 147m, N, E; 145m, N, E; 144m, N, E. METHOD Data acquisition A 49-electrode system with 7 by 7 square grid arrangement of electrodes with 1m, 3m and 5m unit electrode spacing were used in succession at each location (figure 2.0). The pole-pole electrode array was used in this survey with the two remote electrodes placed at distances of 23m, 40m and 65m from the grids of 1m, 3m and 5m unit electrode spacing respectively. The cross-diagonal survey method was adopted for this research work (Loke and Barker, 1996b). To reduce survey time consumption, since a single-channel resistivity meter was used, the crossdiagonal survey method was adopted. The ABEM Terrameter SAS 300B was used for the Survey The data from the survey was inverted and interpreted using the RES3DINV software. RES3DINV ver. 2.16; for Windows 2000/NT/XP/Vista and 3D images were also generated using the Slicer Dicer software.

The fourth layer has resistivity value of 63.2Ωm; revealing a composition of sand, sandstone and clay. The resistivity value of the fifth and sixth geoelectric layers are between 7.3Ωm and 1.5Ωm and these layers suspected to be clay formations. The seventh layer has resistivity value of 0.85Ωm indicating a clay formation. The vertical sections (figure 10b) show the vertical extents of the layers to a depth of 34.7m. It is a general observation that the three different unit lectrode spacings gave rise to similar geoelectric models and the wider the spacing, the deeper the depths of investigation. However the RMS errors were smallest in the inversion of the data from the 1.0m spacing and highest in the 5.0m spacing for each location. Figure 11.0 showed the Slicer Dicer images for all the units spacing. CO CLUSIO This study has shown that it is possible to carry out 3D ERT using a many-electrode system with singlechannel 1D equipment, invert and interpret the data using the RES3DINV software and still get the required result. The results obtained from this study showed reasonable similarity with the results from studies for which multi-channel 3D equipments were used. It has also shown that the pole-pole array is better used for small unit electrode spacing and the observed RMS errors in the inverted data increase with increase in the unit electrode spacing. Using a unit electrode spacing of 0.5m and a system of many electrodes will give a better result. REFERE CES Ajayi, O. and Adegoke, C.W.
