Course Objectives		1) To provide the determination of electrical properties of the rocks, 2) To provide the use of the electrical methods to distinguish geological units and structures, 3) To give an ability to image and interpretation of the results obtained by electrical prospecting methods.
Course Description		Electrical properties of the geological rocks; Dar-Zarrouk parameters. Origin and mechanism of the self-potential in the ground. Measurement techniques and field arrays. Data corrections, theoretical anomalies of simple shaped models. Interpretation methods. Resistivity methods: electrode arrays, apparent resistivity concept. Equations for the theoretical apparent resistivity of multi-layered earth model, Vertical electrical sounding and interpretation by curve matching, electrical profiling and mapping. Induced polarization method: Origin, measurement techniques, data process and interpretation, removing undesired noises and masking effects from data.
Course Outcomes		1) Use the electrical properties of the rocks, anisotropy and Dar Zarrouk parameters 2) The origins and mechanisms of self potential, measuring techniques, corrections, theoretical anomalies, interpretation methods, 3) Set up electrical resistivity method, electrode arrays, measuring techniques, graphing and imaging 4) Induced polarization (IP) method, measuring technique, plotting of pseudo-section, spurious effects 5) Interpretations of the resistivity and Induced Polarization data
