| Abstract: | A 1 km *1/2 km grid geoelectric resistivity survey using the Schlumberger (i.e sounding) mode was conducted in the swath of land between the Staff Quarters of temporary Administration/Hostel blocks stretching to just the edge of the new school of Engineering and Engineering Technology (S.E.E.T) complex. The purpose of the survey was to primarily determine electrically the horizons or formation of their thickness, including relative positions and depths under the surface. Sixty-six VES stations were occupied and the data collected were reduced and subjected to n-layer model analysis by zohdy technique. The results of this analysis are presented as curves of different resistivity versus depth from result's show that VES points B2, C4, E2, G3,I4, J3, J6, K3, and K6 are the points identified as suitable for driling boreholes for the purpose of water exploitation |
