  Surface and subsurface structural interpretation over a part of the Younger Granite province of Northern Nigeria using Aeromagnetic data was carried out to demonstrate the use of recently available high resolution aeromagnetic data in mapping precisely the Younger Granite. State of the art software packages were used in data reduction, processing/analysis and interpretation. Results of the aeromagnetic study show that the distinct magnetic anomalies clearly revealed in the area coincide spatially with outcropping ring complexes. Apart from outcropping ring complexes, some ring complexes without surface exposures (unexposed ring complexes) were also delineated. One of such ring complexes was studied in greater details and its lateral dimensions with that of the adjoining ring complexes were better resolved. The unexposed ring complex was found to have a surface area extent of approximatel.. View More»
