Seeking Alpha, a financial and stock
tracking website, released "Geothermal's Big 12 Events of 2012" by
Herman Trabish, on December 18, 2012. Included in the list at number 7
was the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) discovery of a major sedimentary
geothermal resource in the Black Rock Desert Basin as part of the new data
collected under the Department of Energy-funded AASG State Geological Survey
Contributions to the National Geothermal Data System project. UGS released this news at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the Geothermal Resources Council in early
October, 2012.
Text from the article:
"Seven: Utah Geological Survey testing
discovered a new type of high-temperature energy reservoir in the
Utah-Arizona-Nevada Black Rock desert basin that showed a potential equivalent
to California’s Geysers, the Calpine Corp. (CPN)
fields that produce a third of the world’s geothermal energy."
