A geophysical study combining gravimetric and geo-electric methods was carried out in East Cameroon in order to characterize the soil and subsoil of this area. This work constitutes a preliminary study for the evaluation of areas suitable for hydraulic drilling. The aim of this work is to determine the different lineaments that would be found in this area as well as the different layers of land found in this part of Cameroon. The superposition of maxima map of the horizontal gradient reveals the presence of E-W, N-S, ENE-WSW, NNW-SSE, NNE-SSW and NE-SW oriented contacts. Borings curves obtained from the geoelectrical data allowed the geological section of the area to be drawn up, which is characterized by laterites, clays and fissured granites. |
