Implementation of Aeromagnetic Data Analysis at Wadi Zeidun Area, Central Eastern Desert, Egypt

Wadi Zeidun area is located in the central part of the Eastern Desert of Egypt. The aeromagnetic data is widely used for delineation of a basement surface, and better definition of the geometry of complex bodies. It can also be analyzed in a number of ways, with enhanced techniques and imaging making it an increasingly valuable tool. The basic geophysical concept behind this is that different rock types have different magnetic responses. Source parameter Image (SPI) and analytic signal (AS) methods are applied for depth calculations. In addition to 2-D magnetic modelling were applied to confirm the depth calculation and to give simple view of the basement configuration in the subsurface.
