Description
Within this submission are multiple .tif images with accompanying metadata of magnetotelluric conductor occurrence, fault critical stress composite risk segment (CRS), permeability CRS, Quaternary mafic extrusions, Quaternary fault density, and Quaternary rhyolite maps. Each of these contributed to a final play fairway analysis (PFA) for the SE Great Basin study area.

|---|---|---|---|
| MT Conductor Probability.zip | ZIP | This map represents the probability of magnetotelluric conductor occurrence. It was created by the application of simple probability kriging, with declustering, on MT conductor data points. This was used in the heat and permeability composite risk segment maps for geothermal play fairway analysis in the southeastern Great Basin. | Open resource |
| Critical Stress.zip | ZIP | Fault critical stress layer used in the fracture permeability composite risk segment for the eastern Great Basin geothermal play fairway model. Localized zones were constrained within a circle of 5 km diameter. Notable east-trending regional lineaments, which control Miocene and younger igneous activity, are also included. | Open resource |
| Permeability Composite Risk Segment.zip | ZIP | This is the permeability composite risk segment (CRS) used in geothermal play fairway analysis of the southeastern Great Basin. This CRS was created using the Weighted Sum method to integrate fault density (0.4 weighting), critical stress (0.4 weighting), and magnetotelluric conductors (0.2 weighting). | Open resource |
| Quaternary Basalt.zip | ZIP | This map layer shows mafic extrusions in the southeastern Great Basin buffered at 2 km. This dataset was used in the heat composite risk segment for geothermal play fairway analysis | Open resource |
| Quaternary Fault Density Probability.zip | ZIP | This is the Quaternary fault density probability map used in the creation of the permeability composite risk segment layer for geothermal play fairway analysis in the southeastern Great Basin. Quaternary fault density was first mapped at 0.5 km length/area with a search radius of 5 km with a cell size of 1 km using the USGS Quaternary fault shapefile as input. Probability kriging (Ordinary) was then applied to create this map. | Open resource |
| Quaternary Rhyolite.zip | ZIP | This is the Quaternary rhyolite map, which was buffered at 2 km, used in the heat composite risk segment for geothermal play fairway modeling. | Open resource |
