“…Throughout the Basin and Range and around the world, it is well recognized that geothermal systems occur at discontinuities along faults (Curewitz and Karson, 1997, Faulds et al, 2006, Hinz et al, 2008, Faulds et al, 2011, Hinz et al, 2011, McNamara et al, 2015. Horse-tailing fault terminations, fault intersections, fault step-overs, and accommodation zones are the most common structural settings in the Great Basin and host the majority of known geothermal systems , Faulds et al, 2006, Hinz et al, 2011, Hinz et al, 2010, Hinz et al, 2008.…”
