f Electrical and Magnetic Investigations of Deep Aquifers in north Matabele land, Zimbabwe

Geophysical investigations are being carried Out in North Matabeleland, Zimbabwe, with<br>the aim of finding suitable aquifers to provide the city of Bulawayo with water. In this<br>part of the study an attempt has been made to map the hydrogeology in an area around<br>the railway siding Sawmills.<br>The investigated area is covered by basalt that is mostly weathered on the surface.<br>Outside the Umguza River valley Kalahari Sands overlie the basalt. The basalt rests on<br>the Upper Karoo sandstone, which is the target aquifer. (MacDonald 1970;<br>Stagman 1978).
