Vertical electrical resistivity soundings (VES) were executed in demarcating groundwater potential zones around Uttar Mand River, Satara district. Ten VES using Schlumberger configuration of electrode array have been conducted to find the groundwater potential zones. The field measurements were processed and interpreted by IPI2 win software program. The pseudo and resistivity cross-sections for the study area have been processed. The present study area covers basaltic rock formations of Cretaceous to lower Eocene in age. Interpretations of vertical electrical sounding (VES) using Schlumberger arrangement had been carried out and resistivity results had been compared with the present lithology. Good, average and poor zones were categorized.
