Comprehensive Geophysical Survey Solutions
We deliver professional geophysical survey services for groundwater exploration, aquifer delineation, mineral identification, and environmental studies. Our team applies advanced techniques such as Electrical Resistivity Survey (ERS), Magnetic Survey, and Induced Polarization (IP) to generate reliable subsurface data. Hydrogeologists, mining companies, and engineers rely on our surveys to make informed decisions about water resources, mineral potential, and sustainable land use.
Electrical Resistivity Survey (ERS) – Mapping Aquifers
The Electrical Resistivity Survey provides one of the most reliable methods for locating groundwater. It measures resistivity variations in the subsurface to reveal aquifer zones, highlight groundwater potential, and estimate aquifer depth and thickness. Hydrogeologists use ERS to map subsurface geology and manage water resources sustainably. Because it is non-invasive, cost-effective, and highly accurate, professionals prefer ERS for hydrogeological investigations and borewell site selection.
Magnetic Survey – Detecting Metallic Minerals
Magnetic Surveys play a key role in mineral exploration. They use high-resolution magnetometers to detect anomalies in the Earth’s magnetic field caused by ferrous and magnetic minerals. Geologists apply this method to locate iron ore, nickel, and other metallic deposits while also supporting geological and structural mapping. Mining companies depend on magnetic surveys to identify mineral-rich zones. Because the method is fast and efficient, experts use it for both regional reconnaissance and detailed exploration campaigns.
Induced Polarization (IP) Survey – Identifying Conductive Zones
Induced Polarization (IP) Surveys provide one of the most effective techniques for detecting conductive ore bodies at depth. By measuring chargeability and resistivity responses, IP identifies sulfide mineralization and maps conductive structures underground. Mining companies use IP surveys to define ore zones and support feasibility studies before moving to large-scale operations. When combined with resistivity and magnetic methods, IP delivers a comprehensive exploration solution that gives a clearer picture of subsurface resources.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is an Electrical Resistivity Survey (ERS)?
ERS is a geophysical method that measures variations in subsurface resistivity to locate aquifers, estimate depth, and map underground geology. It is widely used for groundwater exploration and borewell site selection.
2. How accurate are Magnetic Surveys for mineral exploration?
Magnetic surveys are highly reliable in detecting ferrous and magnetic minerals. They provide fast results for both regional reconnaissance and detailed exploration studies.
3. What does an Induced Polarization (IP) survey detect?
An IP survey measures chargeability and resistivity responses to identify conductive zones, such as sulfide mineralization, making it valuable for mining exploration.
4. Are geophysical surveys non-invasive?
Yes. Most geophysical methods, including ERS, Magnetic, and IP surveys, are non-invasive and environmentally friendly. They allow data collection without damaging the land.
5. How do I know which survey method is right for my project?
The choice depends on your project goals. For groundwater exploration, ERS is most suitable. For mineral targeting, magnetic and IP surveys are preferred. Our experts can recommend the best approach after reviewing your site requirements.
