Abstract:Geophysical surveys discovered low resistivity values that, in combination with geochemical and structural data, indicate the presence of a previously unrecognized geothermal system with a possible maximum size potential similar to that of the presently installed capacity of the Cerro Prieto geothermal field. The only evidence of a hydrothermal system in the San Felipe Valley are warm groundwater wells and four intertidal hot springs. Exploration at San Felipe was part of a research project that included geolo… Show more
