Abstract

In order to give support to the regional geological studies performed by the Geohidrology Department of the Federal Power Bureau and to continue the water supply to the area, the Geophysics Department of this institution carried out an interpretation, of the gravimetric anomalies of the area, based on information supplied by the Exploration Coordination of PEMEX. Depths to the lower cretacic rocks are estimated for the basins and the zones covered by volcanic f1ows. Two-dimensional modeling of 9 profiles was integrated in a plant view of the top of such formations. These ones may contribute a single aquifer different from the one not which is actually exploited.
