A case analysis of multielectrode resistivity method for determining a well location in groundwater prospecting in the ore concentration area of Guyang County, Baotou City

In order to find out the stratigraphic structure and groundwater pollution in the ore concentration area of Guyang County, Baotou City, it is necessary to carry out hydrogeological drilling around typical mines in the ore concentration area. In this paper, according to different types of groundwater-finding targets and the advantages of different measuring devices in resolution and signal-to-noise ratio, the multielectrode resistivity method was employed to study and analyze the electrical structure characteristics and well forming pattern of groundwater around south concentrator of Wengeqi iron deposit, Hongchang concentrator and Shangshierfenzi gold deposit. The result shows that comprehensive analysis of the hydrogeological conditions of the study area and utilization of different arrays of multielectrode resistivity method seem to be effective technical means for carrying out water resources investigation, which can achieve the target, reduce the multi-solution of geophysical inversion and interpretation, greatly improve the efficiency of searching for groundwater resources by using single geophysical method and provide a technical basis for water exploration and well determination in the ore concentration area of Guyang County, Baotou City.
