AB Electrical resistivity tomography is well suited to find and map subsurface cavities because of its ability todetect resistive features and discriminating subtle resistivity variations. The Linares area (Jaén, Spain), wherean important mining activity on metallic sulphides ores was developed, has been selected for this study.This activity has produced a large volume of mining voids. Electrical resistivity tomography is a geophysicaltool well suited to the detection and mapping of known and unknown mining voids. The technique iscapable of discriminating between the developing cavities, where the target is primarily conductiveweathered material, and the empty voids comprising resistive air-filled cavities. Such cavities may bewater-filled, in which case they are likely to yield conductive anomalies as the water would be significantlymore conductive than the surrounding material (unweathered granite in this case). The survey resultssuggest that electrical resistivity tomography is an ideal geophysical tool to aid in the detection andmonitoring of mining voids and other subsurface cavities
