The electrical resistivity sounding (ERS) was carried out at Mirpur and the surroundings. The ERS station includes Chabrian(gujran), Chabrian(mandra), Chabrian(pulmanda), Dadyal(small shareef), Dadyal, Sank, Jatten banni, Jattan jorian, and Chak sagher areas. During present work, different characteristics like transmissitivity (T), storativity (S), hydraulic conductivity (K) and estimated theoretical discharge (Q) were studied. The parameters deduced have been used to make quantitative and qualitative interpretation. As a part of processing and interpretation of data, computer software, ipi2win was used for interpretation of VES curves. Quantitative interpretation was based on vertical lithological columns. The interpretation in term of hydrogeological characteristics of aquifers was also done to measure aquifer thickness and correlation, transmissitivity, hydraulic conductivity and theoretical discharge. At the end of the study the results of survey were discussed in context with installation of dug wells and tube wells. The study shows the area is mostly composed of clay, gravel, pebbles and boulders. This composition is indicative of Alluvium or Quaternary deposits.
