Resistivity Survey, a Crucial Resource for the Shijay Project in India
The Shijay Project is a massive initiative in India that seeks to uncover and utilize the country's buried resources. Several geophysical techniques are used for this purpose, with resistivity surveying standing out as particularly useful. This article explores the use of resistivity surveys in India, focusing on their significance in the Shijay Project and their potential for locating lucrative subsurface resources. What a Resistivity Survey Is and Why It Matters Subsurface electrical resistivity changes can be mapped using a geophysical method called a resistivity survey, commonly known as electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). Electrodes are used to inject a regulated electrical current into the ground, and potential variations are then measured at other electrodes. Insights on the subsurface's geological structures, water supplies, and prospective mineral deposits can be gained by analyzing these measurements to construct a resistivity model.
