Geothermal potential of Idaho

Effects of well discharges on hydraulic heads in and spring discharges from the geothermal aquifer system in the Bruneau area, Owyhee County, southwestern Idaho

“…Historical data from geothermal wells and springs in Idaho were summarized by Ross (1971). Young and Mitchell (1973) inventoried and sampled 124 geothermal wells and springs in Idaho for chemical analyses (6 in the Bruneau area) and suggested future geothermal studies in 23 areas of the State, including the Bruneau-Grand View area.…”

Hydrology and geochemistry of thermal ground water in southwestern Idaho and north-central Nevada

“…Data from known hot springs in southwestern Idaho and north-central Nevada are included in Stearns, Stearns, and Waring (1937). Historical data from thermal springs and wells in southwestern Idaho were summarized by Ross (1971); however, few water-chemistry data were presented. Young and Mitchell (1973) gave chemical analyses from 16 hot-water wells and 6 hot springs in Owyhee and Twin Falls Counties in their evaluation of thermal water in Idaho.…”

Thermal springs in the Payette River basin, west-central Idaho

“…Ross (1971) summarized existing data, which included several chemical analyses of thermal-spring waters. Young and Mitchell (1973) included chemical analyses of water from 10 thermal springs and 1 warm-water well in their assessment of Idaho's geothermal potential.…”
