Abstract:
A geo‐electrical conceptual model for the Menengai geothermal prospect is built
using magnetotellurics data both of low and high amplitude collected over time.
The data is corrected for static shift by use of transient electromagnetic data
collected at the same data stations. Data collected previously in the same area
using these techniques is also incorporated into the working data base. The entire
data set is jointly inverted and cross sections taken along four profiles cutting
across the caldera and intersecting major structures in the area. An interpretation
of these results show the existence of geothermal indicators within the caldera
bounds with a general north‐eastern to south‐western trend and is significantly
shallower towards the east
