Interrelation among electrophysical properties of clay rocks, their porosity and moisture saturation

  • Published:
Journal of Mining Science Aims and scope

Abstract

The variation ranges for structural clay rock parameters that determine dependence of the electrical resistivity on the porosity and moisture saturation are considered. The test data on the relationship between the electrical properties of pore-filling solutions and their concentration are reported. The process for geoelectric monitoring of physical rock mass condition is described, and the examples of its application to solving mining and technical problems are presented.
