This research was conducted in Mt. Lompobattang, Pabumbungan Village, District of Ere Merasa, Bantaeng Regency, South Sulawesi using resistivity geoelectric methods. The aim of this study was to determine the subsurface structure of the study area as a first step in the survey to detect geothermal potential (geothermal). Data acquisition was done by using a set of single-channel resistivity meters and in processing data using Res2DINV software to get a 2D cross-section. The measurement shows 3 lines. Based on the measurements show that the subsurface conditions in the study area there are types of rocks in the form of lava, breccia and aquifer, the resistivity value at the study site ranges from 10.8 - 1825 Ωm. With the detection of the lava layer, it can be said that there is a geothermal potential in the area.
