Geoelectric Evaluation Of Soil Foundation Utilizing Electrical Resistivity Tomography At West Gulf Of Suez, Al-Ain Al Sokhna, Egypt, Mahmoud Zayed Jan 2023

Geoelectric Evaluation Of Soil Foundation Utilizing Electrical Resistivity Tomography At West Gulf Of Suez, Al-Ain Al Sokhna, Egypt, Mahmoud Zayed

Al-Azhar Bulletin of Science

To evaluate the subsurface layers and geological structures for construction in one of the tourist areas in Egypt, the geoelectrical survey was used, represented by the 2D Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT). The geoelectrical survey includes 16 ERT profiles that have been conducted by using the Winner electrode array with twenty electrodes connected to a multi-core cable. The electrode spacing (a) varies between 4 and 6 meters to investigate a depth of around twenty meters, and the length of the ERT profiles varies from 76 to 114 meters depending on the electrode spacing difference and the field's available space. Through the …

Al-Azhar Bulletin of Science

The present work deals with the field geology, petrography, geochemistry and mineralogy of Wadi Zayatit and Wadi Mikbi ultramafic-mafic intrusive complex, South Eastern Desert, Egypt. Based on the current geological maps, field observations, structural relationships, and previous works; the rocks that exposed in the study regions are dunites, peridotites, and gabbro. These rocks characterized by coarse-grained, dark greyish to whitish grey color, massive with lustric features and slightly deformed with low to moderate relief. The commonest of the accessory constituents is an oxide ore mineral of some kinds, the most frequent one is chromite, ilmenite, titano-magnetite and magnesio-ferrite. The petrographic …
