Surface-borehole induced polarization method is a common geophysical method in metal exploration. The forward calculation results of the borehole observation responses can provide reference and support for practical work. In particular, the forward results of spherical polarized target can be equivalent to massive ore body or karst caves and other low-resistivity anomalies. In this paper, the forward simulation of borehole induced polarization responses is carried out by using the electric dipole model equivalent spherical polarized body. The results show that the polarization degree of the excitation source at different positions is different, and the closer the proximity is, the stronger the secondary field anomaly is. Borehole observation has advantages for the identification of deep ore bodies. Under the same offset condition, the closer the distance from the borehole is, the stronger the responses will be. The results of this paper can provide reference and basis for relevant research work.
