The structure trends analysis of the magnetic land survey data

Page 23: PhD presentation

As conclusions • There are two major anomaly zones; the first one has generally low magnetic values having relatively

high relief, reflecting a major sedimentary basin that occurred in the northeastern part of the area. This basin has a wide extension and probably extends further outside of the investigated area. However, the remaining part of the study area is characterized by short wavelength anomalies representing shallow to moderate basement.

• The Structural trend analyses have been applied for the shallow structural elements deduced from the observed and residual land survey magnetic data. The interpreted fault and/or contact system are statistically analyzed and plotted in the form of rose diagrams. These diagrams showed the major sets of the trends, which are; (i) The NNW to SSE trends (Red Sea-Gulf of Suez trend)(i) The NNW to SSE trends (Red Sea-Gulf of Suez trend) representing the most prevailing faulting direction in the studied area as the first order, and (ii) The NE to SW trend (ii) The NE to SW trend (Aqab trend)(Aqab trend) this trend is significance in the residual anomaly trend, (iii) The ENE-WSW trend (iii) The ENE-WSW trend (Aualitic)(Aualitic) is the third order trend. The oldest tectonic trends seem to be rejuvenated as related to the opening of the Red Sea and the two gulfs.

• Depth estimationDepth estimation was carried out for the major selected anomalies of the RTP magnetic maps using spectral analysis, in order to delineate the depth to basement. Moreover, the 3-D analytical signal, Euler deconvoluation and two dimension modeling techniques have been applied to estimate basement surface as well as structural deformations affecting the overlying sedimentary section. The depth results obtained from the land magnetic survey area range from 1100 to 1860 from 1100 to 1860 meter.meter. The means of these results were calculated and the basement relief map was constructed to the area of study. This map was constructed to illustrate the paleo-topographic configuration of the basement rocks that may be related to the predominant structural element shows that the depth to the basement surface ranges from 1100 to 1860 meters.

• Therefore, it is concluded that there is no recent seismic activitiesno recent seismic activities in the area of study, this is directly related and associated with the absent of the major and effected deep structures in the study and all structural trends related to the affection of major trends to the surface .

Iso-apparent conductivity contour map for different Frequency

Page 41: PhD presentation

From both TEM and VESes, the qualitative interpretation of abovementioned maps led to the following conclusions:

1-The resemblance in the form of anomalies and the drifts of the contour lines for most of the created maps for both techniques, especially the surface parts, gives an image about the homogeneity of the area in its electrical properties

2-The surface layers in the study area exhibit a relatively high to middle resistivity values and low to middle conductivity with high frequency "about 12525 Hz" that may be attributed to the nature of the weathered rocks in such semi-arid regions covered with transported farm soil, such high values may reflect mixed gravel, sand, and soil lithology.

3-The maps show a general increase in resistivity towards the eastern direction agrees with decrease in conductivity, may be deciphered as due to the increase in the thickness of the probed formations since the eastern part is localized in somewhat topographic high area.

4-The low resistivity values with high conductivity values encountered at apparent depths of a bout AB/2=10 m and at moderately high frequency "about 10860 Hz". It may outline the nature of the clay lenses that appeared in the shallow depths in some portions along the study area.

5-The high resistivity values with low conductivity values stumble upon at apparent depths of a bout AB/2=140m and at about 8050 Hz. may outline the nature of the formation that mainly composed of argillaceous limestone.

6-The low resistivity values with high conductivity values encountered at apparent depths of a bout AB/2= 200m and at about 1735 Hz. may outline the nature of the formation containing water (as constrained from the drilled water wells), where it is mainly composed of loose sands.

7-The very low resistivity values recorded at AB/2= 400 m apparent depth and at about 578 Hz" may reflect the change in water quality or a change in formation lithology, where these values are very characteristic of these causes.

Page 42: PhD presentation

QUANTITATIVE INTERPRETATION OF VESes and TEM DATA

The quantitative interpretation of the resistivity and TEM data for the present study includes:

1. Interpretation of the vertical sounding curves manually at first using master curves to reach at preliminary models for input to further processing automatically using to “Zohdy’s technique 1989” and “Resist’s software 1988”.

2. Interpretation of the Electromagnetic sounding curves automatically using to “TEMIX XL's software 1996”.

3. Illustrating and analysis of the geoelectrical Cross-section, which reflects the lithologic implications of the studied sections.

4. Preparing the Isopach maps of the groundwater bearing layers and its depths.

Page 51: PhD presentation

As a conclusion, from both TEM and VESes soundings

• The range of resistivity and conductivity variation in each layer is narrow, and in the case where wide variations do exist, it is met with a change in the corresponding thickness and lithology.

• The range of thickness change is also narrow except in areas where the obtained resistivity is low "High Conductivity".

• The study of the shallow section within the specified area reflects that, the shallow section comprises four layers in most part and five layers in some parts of the study area.

• The average maximum resistivity value obtained for the surface layer as will as minimum conductivity value "with high frequency", where weathering products that composed of boulders and stones derived from the nearly mountains are present.

• The resistivity values decrease gradually with the increase of depth and versa reverse for conductivity values "with decrease in frequency".

• There is no evidence of presence either any remarkable structure interrupted the lithologic continuity of the study area.

• Tow different lithological layers had been noted that appears in some places and disappear in another, clay lens appears in some places “scattered sites” in the first layer, and argillaceous limestone appears below the second layer in some places ”Northeast and East portions”.

Page 52: PhD presentation

• There are two main aquifers in the study area. The upper one is the fresh water-bearing layer and the lower aquifer is the brackish to saline water quality.

• Unmoral noted low resistivity value appeared in site of site No. 36 in both VESes and TEM survey, so it should be studied by another tools to make more details and explain this phenomenon. (Done by more detailed tools in Chapters 6, 7, and 8)

• There’s a notable similarity between the qualitative interpretation and the quantitative interpretation of both VES and TEM techniques, which previously have been interpreted in part one.

1-The interpreted Geoelectrical cross-sections suggest three-layer model at four positions and four-layer model at the other ten positions.

2-The Geoelectrical layers were converted from the resistivity values into four lithologic layers as:

A – Surface layer: clay (transported soil for agriculture activity) B – Second layer: gravely sand -to-sand lithology C – Third layer: argillaceous limestone.D – Fourth layer “Filled-Gab”: very loose material “dust and factory wastes – very low resistivity material” 3-there is palpable facts, from the R2D data, suggests that there is a gab had

been made and filled with material and according to the notted low values that characterized it may be a dust and wastes of the cement factory that called “BYBASS” that may caused lowing in resistivity values . this gab disturbances the former sequence of the area (Fig. 6-5).

4- two edges of this gab had been detected by the R2D profiles but the other edges are unknown and unlimited in the spot area.

5-The penetrated interface, which has been detected by R2D survey in the study area, has depth values reach 24 m with Wenner array

1-The interpreted Geoseismic cross-sections suggest three-layer model at four positions and four-layer model at the other ten positions.

2-The Geoseismic layers were converted from the velocities values into four lithologic layers as:

Top A – Surface layer: clay (transported covered agriculture soil) B – Second layer: gravely sand-to-sand layer C – Third layer: argillaceous limestone. D –“Filled-Gab” : contains very material may be (dust and factory wastes called “BYBASS” )

3-there is obvious evidence, from the seismic data, suggests that there is a gab had been made and filled with very fine grains material and it may be consist of a dust and wastes of the cement factory that called “BYBASS” . This gab is disturbance of the former sequence of the area.

4- Two edges of this gab had been perceived by the seismic profiles but the other edges are unknown and unlimited in the spot area.

5-The penetrated interface, which has been seismically detected in the study

area, has depth values vary from 23 m at the geophone site “4” of profile “3” to 27m at geophone “9” of profile “22”

Inspection of the various maps drawn for the different layers reveals that:

1-Both the change in the seismic velocityvelocity associated with each layer and which is observed between the different layers is remarkable. Such variation in velocities shows that the sequence is not constant allover the study area. On the other hand, the limited variation of velocity with each layer suggests an equivalent.

2-The irregular change in thickness and depthirregular change in thickness and depth characterize the

different layer over the study area. The pointed of sudden change of the former parameters suggests an equivalent behavior in lithologylithology in for individual layer and the uneven of disturbance associated with geological geological structuresstructures

From Magnetic land surveyFrom Magnetic land survey • There are two major anomaly zones; the first one has generally low magnetic values

having relatively high relief, reflecting a major sedimentary basin that occurred in the northeastern part of the area. This basin has a wide extension and probably extends further outside of the investigated area. However, the remaining part of the study area is characterized by short wavelength anomalies representing shallow to moderate basement.

• The Structural trend analyses have been applied for the shallow structural elements deduced from the observed and residual land survey magnetic data. The interpreted fault and/or contact system are statistically analyzed and plotted in the form of rose diagrams. These diagrams showed the major sets of the trends, which are; (i) The NNW to SSE (i) The NNW to SSE trends (Red Sea-Gulf of Suez trend)trends (Red Sea-Gulf of Suez trend) representing the most prevailing faulting direction in the studied area as the first order, and (ii) The NE to SW trend (Aqab trend)(ii) The NE to SW trend (Aqab trend) this trend is significance in the residual anomaly trend, (iii) The ENE-WSW trend (Aualitic)(iii) The ENE-WSW trend (Aualitic) is the third order trend. The oldest tectonic trends seem to be rejuvenated as related to the opening of the Red Sea and the two gulfs.

• Depth estimationDepth estimation was carried out for the major selected anomalies of the RTP magnetic maps using spectral analysis, in order to delineate the depth to basement. Moreover, the 3-D analytical signal, Euler deconvoluation and two dimension modeling techniques have been applied to estimate basement surface as well as structural deformations affecting the overlying sedimentary section. The depth results obtained from the land magnetic survey area range from 1100 to 1860 meter.from 1100 to 1860 meter. The means of these results were calculated and the basement relief map was constructed to the area of study. This map was constructed to illustrate the paleo-topographic configuration of the basement rocks that may be related to the predominant structural element shows that the depth to the basement surface ranges from 1100 to 1860 meters.

• Therefore, it is concluded that there is no recent seismic activitiesno recent seismic activities in the area of study, this is directly related and associated with the absent of the major and effected deep structures in the study and all structural trends related to the affection of major trends to the surface .

from both TEM and VESes soundings

• The range of resistivity and conductivity variation in each layer is narrow, and in the case where wide variations do exist, it is met with a change in the corresponding thickness and lithology.

• The range of thickness change is also narrow except in areas where the obtained resistivity is low "High Conductivity".

• The study of the shallow section within the specified area reflects that, the shallow section comprises four layers in most part and five layers in some parts of the study area.

• The average maximum resistivity value obtained for the surface layer as will as minimum conductivity value "with high frequency", where weathering products that composed of boulders and stones derived from the nearly mountains are present.

• The resistivity values decrease gradually with the increase of depth and versa reverse for conductivity values "with decrease in frequency".

• There is no evidence of presence either any remarkable structure interrupted the lithologic continuity of the study area.

• Tow different lithological layers had been noted that appears in some places and disappear in another, clay lens appears in some places “scattered sites” in the first layer, and argillaceous limestone appears below the second layer in some places ”Northeast and East portions”.

Page 135: PhD presentation

• There are two main aquifers in the study area. The upper one is the fresh water-bearing layer (Depth from 10 to 55m and thickness arrange from 18m to 60m) and the lower aquifer is the brackish to saline water quality (Depth from 40 to 100m).

• Unmoral noted low resistivity value appeared in site of site No. 36 in both VESes and TEM survey, so it should be studied by another tools to make more details and explain this phenomenon. (Should be done by more detailed geophysical tools.

1-The interpreted Geoelectrical cross-sections suggest three-layer model at four positions and four-layer model at the other ten positions.

2-The Geoelectrical layers were converted from the resistivity values into four lithologic layers as:

A – Surface layer: clay (transported soil for agriculture activity) B – Second layer: gravely sand -to-sand lithology C – Third layer: argillaceous limestone.D – Fourth layer “Filled-Gab”: very loose material “dust and factory wastes – very low resistivity material” 3-there is palpable facts, from the R2D data, suggests that there is a gab had

been made and filled with material and according to the noted low values that characterized it may be a dust and wastes of the cement factory that called “BYBASS” that may caused lowing in resistivity values . this gab disturbances the former sequence of the area .

4- two edges of this gab had been detected by the R2D profiles but the other edges are unknown and unlimited in the spot area.

5-The penetrated interface, which has been detected by R2D survey in the study area, has depth values reach 24 m with Wenner array

2-The Geoseismic layers were converted from the velocities values into four lithologic layers as:

Top A – Surface layer: clay (transported covered agriculture soil) B – Second layer: gravely sand-to-sand layer C – Third layer: argillaceous limestone. D –“Filled-Gab” : contains very material may be (dust and factory wastes called “BYBASS” )

3-there is obvious evidence, from the seismic data, suggests that there is a gab had been made and filled with very fine grains material and it may be consist of a dust and wastes of the cement factory that called “BYBASS” . This gab is disturbance of the former sequence of the area.

4- Two edges of this gab had been perceived by the seismic profiles but the other edges are unknown and unlimited in the spot area.

5-The penetrated interface, which has been seismically detected in the study

area, has depth values vary from 23 m at the geophone site “4” of profile “3” to 27m at geophone “9” of profile “22”
