Snake River (Idaho) Geothermal Drilling Project: Innovative Approaches to Geothermal Exploration

The goal of our project was to test innovative exploration technologies using existing and new data, and to ground-truth these technologies using slim-hole core technology. The slim-hole core allowed us to understand subsurface stratigraphy and alteration in detail, and to correla...
