Abstract
The electrical anisotropy of the Basement Complex area of the University of Ife has been established using apparent resistivity maps.
The electrical anisotropy and hence inhomogeneity in the area is primarily due to foliation; structural trends of concealed basement rocks deduced from resistivity maps correlate significantly with strikes of foliation/geologic boundary.
It follows therefore that strikes of foliation of concealed solid rocks, in which the predominant structural feature is foliation or where the fracture/joint directions are generally in line with strikes of foliation, can be reasonably determined from surface geophysical measurements.
