soundings\\ were\\ conducted\r\r\nin\\ order\\ to\\ delineate\\ the\\ groundwater\\ potentials\\ at\\ some\\ locations\r\r\nin\\ Ezza\\ North\\ Local\\ Government\\ of\\ Ebonyi\\ State.\\ Twelve\\ vertical\r\r\nelectrical\\ soundings\\ were\\ obtained\\ using\\ the\\ Schlumberger\r\r\nconfiguration\\ with\\ the\\ aid\\ of\\ the\\ OHMEGA\\ terramenter\r\r\n(SAS1000).The\\ field\\ data\\ were\\ subjected\\ to\\ interpretation\\ by\r\r\nemploying\\ the\\ method\\ of\\ manual\\ partial\\ curve\\ matching\\ techniques\r\r\nusing\\ the\\ master\\ curves\\ and\\ the\\ corresponding\\ auxiliary\\ curves.\\ A\r\r\ncomputer\\ programme\\ (RESOUND)\\ was\\ also\\ used\\ to\\ interpret\\ the\r\r\ndata.\\ The\\ parameters\\ obtained\\ were\\ used\\ to\\ determine\\ the\r\r\nresistivities\\ and\\ thicknesses\\ of\\ the\\ subsurface\\ layers.\\ The\\ major\r\r\nlithologic\\ units\\ of\\ the\\ area\\ are\\ shales,\\ sandstone\\ and\\ mudstone.\\ The\r\r\nwater\\ bearing\\ rocks\\ were\\ interpreted\\ to\\ exist\\ at\\ depths\\ between\r\r\n20m\\ and\\ 130m.\\ The\\ results\\ fairly\\ correlated\\ with\\ some\\ logged\r\r\nboreholes\\ close\\ to\\ the\\ survey\\ area.\\ The\\ aquifers\\ have\\ resistivities\r\r\nranging\\ between\\ 9Ωm\\ and\\ 110Ωm.\\ The\\ geophysical\\ search\\ for\r\r\ngroundwater\\ has\\ shown\\ that\\ the\\ survey\\ area\\ has\\ good\\ groundwater\r\r\npotentials\\ which\\ if\\ exploited\\ would\\ go\\ a\\ long\\ way\\ in\\ reducing\\ the\r\r\nproblems\\ of\\ seasonal\\ water\\ shortage\\ and\\ health\\ problems\\ associated\r\r\nwith\\ the\\ consumption\\ of\\ unhygienic\\ surface\\ water\\ in\\ the\\ area dc.rights http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ citation_volume 2013 citation_publisher Science\\
