McGee Mountain Geoprobe Survey, Humboldt County, Nevada
This shapefile contains location and attribute data for a Geoprobe temperature survey conducted by Geothermal Technical Partners, Inc. during 2010. The purpose of direct push technology (DPT) probe activity at the McGee Mtn. Project, Nevada was to 1) determine bottom hole temperatures using nominal 1.5 inch probe tooling to place resistance temperature detectors (RTD) and 2) take water samples, if possible, to characterize the geothermometry of the system.
A total of 23 holes were probed in five days for a cumulative total of 857.5 ft. at 21 sites at McGee Mountain. The probed holes ranged in depth from a maximum of 75 ft to a minimum of 10 ft and averaged 37.3 ft. The average temperature of the 23 holes was 18.9 degrees C, with a range of 12.0 degrees C at site MMTG#1b to 42.0 degrees C at site MMTG#19. . No water was encountered in any of the probed holes, with the exception of MMTG#10, and no water was collected for sampling. Zip file containing Arcview shapefile in UTM11 NAD83 projection. 5 kb file size.
