Exploration Basis

Exploration program undertaken by the DOE-funded Geothermal Resource Evaluation and Definitions Program Phase I (GRED III Phase I)

 

Notes

Fugro, Inc. performed an airborne geophysical survey using the DIGHEM (Digital Helicopter ElectroMagnetics) aircraft over a 937 km^2 survey grid. An coplanar electromagnetic survey at varying frequencies (900, 7, 200 and 56,000 Hz) was conducted. These measurements contributed to the geological map compiled.
