Abstract

A

The theoretical horizontal resistivity profiles over an outcropping vertical dyke for various parameters‐electrode spacing, vein‐width and resistivity contrast—with inline alpha, beta and gamma‐Wenner electrode systems are described. The resistivity profiles present a most bewildering variety of shapes as compared to those in resistivity soundings. The analysis of type curves suggests suitable electrode configuration for detection of wide, moderately wide, and thin veins. The negative apparent resistivity values on the gamma anomalies for resistive vein over certain vein‐widths of higher positive values of resistivity reflection factor contradict the concept of apparent resistivity hitherto held.
