An integrated geophysical investigation was carried out at a site near Yeka-Ayat condominium and just in area about the middle of Ayat square and Tafo square, northeastern Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The principal objective of this research is to map the subsurface geology of the site and discuss its suitability for the construction of large infrastructure. The method employed are the electrical resistivity tomography Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) and Seismic refraction. Four VES points distributed along one profile line, four dipole-dipole survey lines spread and seismic survey on two profile lines were conducted to characterize the foundation materials within the study site. Qualitative and quantitative interpretations of the acquired data were made by comparing the results with borehole log data available from nearby areas. The results have revealed that the subsurface geology consists of three to four distinct units that reflect different physical properties (resistivity and seismic wave velocity). The upper most layer is characterized by low resistivity (3.03-25Ω-m) and low P-wave velocity (
Subsurface Intelligence & Critical Mineral Exploration
Modern Geology projects now focus on Machine Learning in Mineral Targeting, Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) Geologic Modeling, and Critical Mineral Systems (Lithium, REEs). If your research involves Hydrogeological Connectivity, Seismic Inversion, or Geotechnical Site Characterization, ensure your analysis follows the JORC or NI 43-101 reporting standards and utilizes robust 3D Subsurface Visualization and Geochemical Fingerprinting frameworks.
