5 Finding Geothermal Resources Geophysics: Variety of properties to characterize resource Basic physical properties Imaging the subsurface structure Imaging fluids
6 Physical Properties Property Density Magnetic Susceptibility Conductivity Velocity Method Gravity, Seismic Magnetics DC Resistivity, Self Potential, Electromagnetic Seismic
7 General Surveying Tactics/Commentary Run lines perpendicular to (supposed) anomaly 3D vs. 2D Non-unique solutions = many methods Surface clues
8 Neal Hot Springs Survey Lines Raynolds, 2011
9 Geophysics and Geothermal Systems Where is the hot water? How can it flow to the surface?
10 Figure: The set up and theory behind DC resistivity (Northwest Geophysical Associates Inc.) Where is the water? Inject current into ground Measure potential difference Calculate apparent resistivity Invert for resistivity/conductivity model Water = conductive! DC Resistivity
11 Self Potential Theory Revil, 2011
