Abstract

The chalky limestone and marley limestone are the main lithological unit of Euphrates Formation which can be existed and appeared in the area under investigation "north west Haditha area". When the groundwater passing through these types of rocks, a part of their may suffer from dissolution by means of dissolving process. Hence, the main task of the present survey is to locate and delineate the buried channels caused by this type of process in the area located in western part of Iraq by applying two EM techniques namely, electromagnetic conductivity and VLFRadiohm electromagnetic resistivity methods.
