Historically, geophysical technique (magnetic) was first used in Sweden in the 17th century for prospecting iron ore (Reedman, 1979). Geophysical techniques gained more acceptability in the early 1923 (Gupter, 1986) because of exploration for crude oil. Relevance of Geophysics across the world is as a result of oil and solid mineral exploration.
