Since the 1950s, the magnetotellurics method (MT) has been widely used in mineral and oil prospecting (sedimentary basins), cratonic regions and recognitions of crustal-scale geological discontinuities. MT geophysical method consists of a passive technique that aims to investigate geoelectric characteristics of subsoil through the interaction between telluric currents and subsurface materials. The objective of ...
This work performed in the city of New Jaguaribara at Castanhão dyke, was motivated by the observation through seismographs of several earthquakes of low magnitude generated since the construction of the dyke in the mentioned area. The objective of this work was to investigate three areas with large concentrations of epicenters near the Castanhão dyke. The investigation was executed using: remote sensing, geolo...
