Developing Successful Exploration Strategies in Extended Terranes
We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the structural controls of geothermal systems within the Great Basin and adjacent regions. Our main objectives were to:
1) Produce a catalogue of favorable structural environments and models for geothermal systems.
2) Improve site-specifi...

Characterizing favourable structural settings of geothermal reservoirs in extensional regions: Enhanced exploration strategies
Exploration of geothermal systems is commonly hampered by the risk of unsuccessful drilling. A major problem in selecting well sites is that the favorable settings of known systems are generally not adequately characterized. This is particularly important in amagmatic regions, wh...
