2. Electrical resistivity methods
Rock types and resistivity Igneous rocks → highest resistivities Sedimentary rocks → tend to be the most conductive due to their high fluid content Metamorphic rocks → have intermediate but overlapping resistivities Age of the rock is also important for the resistivity. For example:

The resistivity of most rocks varies with porosity, the salinity of the interstitial fluid, and certain other factors. Rocks containing appreciable clay usually have low resistivity. The resistivity of rocks containing conducting minerals such as sulfide ores and graphitized or pyritized rocks depends on the connectivity of the minerals present.

The resistivity of rocks in the earth is a function of the resistivity of the rock matrix and the water held in the pgre spaces. Pure water has a high resistivity (10 ohm-m), but if the water contains dissolved iog the resistivity decreases dramatically (to 10 ohm-m or less). As a result, conduction through the 1 iquid phase tends
