Resource Exploration

Complex resistivity (CR) is one of an electromagnetic method which plays an important role in the exploration of oil and gas, underground water as well as solid mineral resources in recent years. Nowadays China is under fast developing and there is still a big gap between the supply and demand of mineral resources. As an effective controlled source electromagnetic method, CR method can be easily used to judge the content of resources, determine the target reservoir and select a favorable drilling area. In this paper, an introduction to CR method and its application in copper mine exploration in west China is present. The result shows that CR is an effective electromagnetic method in the exploration of deep mineral resources.

Abstract As an emerging geophysical exploration method, complex resistivity method is a potential non-invasive one for evaluating hydrofracturing effect. Reactance X is an important parameter of complex resistivity method. Compared with the traditional parameter resistance R, reactance has advantages such as distinct dispersion characteristics, clear conduction mechanism and rich information. In this paper, reactance X of four kinds of coal sample with different water saturation was tested, their dispersion characteristics were analyzed, and their conductive mechanism was studied. The results show that, (1) the characteristic curve of reactance dispersion presents a three-stage law when the water saturation is low, and a two-stage law when the water saturation is high,to some extent, the water content of coal body and the effect of hydraulic fracturing are distinguished;(2) polarization is the cause of dispersion, in which low frequency is induced polarization, high frequency is dielectric polarization, and electromagnetic induction is the interference phenomenon in the frequency band of induced polarization; (3) spectrum extremum frequency point is sensitive to changed water saturation. Extremum points of different coal rank are concentrated in 100-1000Hz. This frequency band can serve as the dominant frequency band for evaluating coal seam water saturation. This paper gives new insight into the evaluation of coal seam hydrofracturing effect by complex resistivity method.

Structural Failures

In modern days for structures in coastal areas it has been observed that the premature structural failures are occurs due to corrosion of the reinforcements of the designed structural member. The corrosion causes the structural damage which in turn leads to reduction in the bearing capacity of the concerned structural members. The aim of this study was to study the effect of partial replacement of fly ash to minimize the corrosion effect. Beams were designed and corroded by using artificial method known accelerated corrosion method. The beams were then tested for flexural and bond strength. Also the weight loss of the reinforced bars was been determined using electrical resistivity method. The fly ash will replace by 10% and 15%.The strength will calculate at varying percentage of corrosion at 10% and 15%. Beams will cast at M25 grade concrete. The flexural strength will test by using UTM and the bond strength will calculate using pullout test.

In terms of geology, most areas in south of the Gunungkidul District in Central Java consist of the Wonosari formation limestone. The land is generally very dry and source of raw water is also difficult to reach. Findings on the existence of underground river in caves, however, indicate the potential amount of water within the area, especially in the eastern part of the Gunungkidul District. Although limited information available, some fishermen have discovered that Seropan cave contains fresh water source. This cave is situated at 65 m below the cliff. Initial exploration, which done using a multichannel resistivity method, confirmed the availability of freshwater in the cave and underground river. The isopach of cave depth is found in ranges of 80 200 m below the ground surface. The water of Seropan cave can be utilized by implementing pipeline or by drilling at the suggested point based on the interpretation results, i.e. 110o2223.6388 EL 8o42.874 SL.
