π is the geomet-
ric factor.
Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) measurements
were undertaken with a multi-electrode 2D device (ABEM
TERRAMETER SAS 4000), using 64 electrodes with spac-
ing depending on the desired resolution and depth. We used
a spacing of 0.5 m above the outcrops (high resolution but
low depth) and a spacing of 5 m for the prospective lines. We


usually used a gradient array to obtain both high resolution
and satisfactory depth (1252 points of measure, 45 m depth)
and occasionally pole-dipole array in order to increase the
investigation depth (588 points, 70 m depth). Each prospec-
tive line was acquired using several 315 m ERT sections,
according to a roll-along procedure, with a half-covering.
Prior to the acquisition, a check-up of the electrodes has been
realized consisting in an injection of 20 mA (ABEM
Instrument 2006 ).
