Abstract:Objective: To conduct geophysical evaluation in Yuli, Futuk, Kaltungo, Guyok, Shellen, Bashar, Muri, Lau, Dong and Numan area Upper Benue Trough, Nigeria to ascertain the region's geothermal energy potential for electricity generation. Methods: Radial average power spectrum method was employed in this research work. The residual upward continued data was divided into twentyseven (27) overlapping spectral block using the filtering feature of the Oasis montaj program. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) MAGMAP techniqu… Show more
