摘要: Digital Aeromagnetic data for Lower Benue Trough (Afikpo and Nkalagu) have been analyzed to locate specific basement targets investigation using seismic methods in deep hydrocarbon exploration. This is motivated by the call of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) re-investigate all basins country accumulation. In depths intrusive range from 3.2km 3.9km while structures 8.7km 19.2km. The susceptibilities suggest that they are composed granite, basalt, dolerite rhyolite. Depths show thick sedimentary deposits potential Keywords: Cretaceous age, megastructure, forward inverse modeling, geometrical shapes
