Abstract

Results of geoelectrical investigations conducted in the Aurangabad Sub-division of Gaya District, Bihar, India, are presented and the utility of such a survey for groundwater exploration in the marginal areas is emphasised. The analysis of the resistivity data not only yields useful information as regards the variation in thickness of the overburden, but also indicates broadly its water-bearing capacities. On the basis of the resistivity data, it is possible to demarcate the unproductive zones where prevalance of clay is indicated. The productive areas may be further classified into subzones in order of their groundwater promise.
