Sondagem elétrica vertical aplicada na estimativa de dimensões verticais de unidades geológicas no norte da cidade de Sinop – MT

Abstract

Through the technique of VES (vertical electrical sounding) were five VES with maximum aperture of AB/ 2 1,000m in the northern city of Sinop -MT, to determine the thickness of the soil and the depth and thickness of geological units. The results of VES allowed to correlate stratigraphically from bottom to top the Dardanelos Formation, Salto das Nuvens , Utiariti and Pedological cover. The Dardanelos Formation has a thickness greater 100m and depth of between 325m and 400m, the Salto das Nuvens Formation has a thickness ranging from 260m to 350m and depth of 49,9 m and 89,95m, and Utiariti Formation has a thickness of 45m and 86m, depth between 1,6m and 6,4m and the soil has thickness ranging from 1,6 m to 6,4 m.
