2-D Inversion of Electrical Resistivity Data from Aynak Copper Deposits, Aynak, Afghanistan


Abstract
Aynak Copper deposits in Afghanistan, which is a world-class mine, is located 20 km southeast of Kabul in Logar province. The area is characterized by a dry soil which composed of sand and gravel. The Aynak ore body can be classified as a sediment-hosted copper deposit. An electrical resistivity survey was carried out in the north part of the area using the pole-dipole configuration. In the results, the resistive (low conductivity
