Abstract
Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and transient electromagnetic (TEM) surveys were done in Luikonlahti tailings impoundment area, Eastern Finland. Purpose of the measurements were to find the structure of the tailings impoundment area and possible seepage areas. Totally 5 ERT profiles and 4 TEM profiles were measured in the tailings area. ERT and TEM measurements revealed clearly the structure of tailings impoundment. Results of the both methods agreed and coincide with the drilling results.
