Forecast of the distribution of volcanogenic masses on the basis of the analysis of magnetometric and borehole data in the north-western part of the Yevlakh-Agjabedi depression

Abstract

The article presents the results of new magnetometric planning work carried out with a Geometrics G-856AX (made of USA) magnetometer in the north-western part of the Yevlakh Agjabedi basin and explores the field distribution characteristics of high-intensity local magnetic maxima. Local anomalies of the geomagnetic field in different averaging radii (R = 1.5, 2, 3, 5 km) of the north-western part of the Yevlakh Agjabedi basin were calculated and distribution maps of the field were constructed. As a result, it is shown that volcanic structures are distributed in the zone of maxima identified on the maps of local anomalies in the part of the NW part of the Yevlakh Agjabedi basin. It is assumed that the deep fault zone separated by seismic data in the Naftalan-Godakboz and Duzdag areas will be characterized by magnetic minimums, and intensive magnetic maxima will be determined to the east. In the west, volcanic masses have been found in the zones of high-intensity magnetic maxima identified in the Borsunlu, Dalimammadli, and Hazirahmedli fields. Of these, volcanic roots are believed to be present in the deep fault zone in the Hazirahmedli area, which is characterized by the highest intensity anomaly.
