Hydrothermal Mineralisation and Geothermal Energy 12 of 25

Geologists would visually inspect and log the core to create a record of rock types (lithology) and their sequence (stratigraphy).  Elemental and mineral composition could be determined using techniques like X-ray fluorescence analysis.  The degree of alteration would be examined to help predict rock permeability for geothermal fluid circulation.  Core […]
