The data were interpreted using KHFFILT software. The qualitative interpretation of the acquired VLF–EM data identified areas of hydro-geologic importance.
The EM16 VLF Receiver is the most widely used electromagnetic geophysical instrument of all time. Local tilt and ellipticity of VLF broadcasts are measured and resolved into inphase and quadrature components of VLF response. The EM16 has discovered several base and precious-metal ore bodies and many water-bearing fractures and faults.

For the present investigated area, VLF data was collected using ABEM Wadi (ABEM 2002). The VLF-EM technique has a wide range of successful applications, with resistivity imaging and bedrock mapping being its primary use for determining conductivity depth contrasts (Parker 1980, Saydam 1981, Sundararajan et al. 2006, Rajab 2021).
magnetic (VLF-EM) method and Vertical Electrical Sounding technique. The VLF-EM measurements were made at 10 m intervals along seven traverses (Figure 2b). The VLF traverses range in length from 3000-4500 m while the inter traverse distance is varied. The ABEM WADI VLF-EM receiver unit was used for the data col-lection.
