摘要

The objective of this project is the development of a representative geochemical database for a comprehensive suite of elemental and isotopic parameters (i.e., beyond the typical data suite) for geothermal fluids in the Great Basin. Preliminary assessment suggests that there are significant differences between magmatic-driven and extensional geothermal systems. In particular, fluids in magmatic systems have higher concentrations of arsenic and higher ratios of Li/Cl, B/Cl, and Ce/Cl than fluids from extensional systems. Once understood in the context of Great Basin geothermal systems, such differences can be utilized to more effectively explore for, assess the potential of, and develop exploitation strategies for these two types of systems. Magmatic-driven systems are, in general, more favorable targets for power production than extensional systems because of a higher geothermal temperature gradient. Steamboat Springs, NV provides a test case for this approach. There has been debate over the nature of the Steamboat Springs geothermal system, but the trace element and gas geochemical data are most consistent with magmatism as a driving heat mechanism. Similar trace element investigations, coupled with other geological parameters, may help to identify magmatic-driven systems elsewhere within the Great Basin.
