Utah FORGE: Geochemical Data for Cold Groundwaters and Produced Geothermal Fluids

Geochemical data for cold groundwaters and produced geothermal fluids around the Utah FORGE site. The data is compiled into four tables in the attached Excel File. Table 1 is a compilation of compositions (anions, cations, weak acids, oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon isotopes) for cold groundwaters and produced geothermal waters in the Milford valley, Utah. Table 2 is a compilation of noble gas (He, Ne, Ar) and He and Ne isotopic compositions for cold groundwaters and produced geothermal waters in the Milford valley, Utah. Table 3 provides values for calculated advective and diffusive fluxes of helium. Table 4 provides values of calculated subsurface stored heat between the Opal Mound fault and the Utah FORGE site, which are related to volumes of recently solidified magmatic heat sources.

Utah FORGE: Well 16A(78)-32 Core Analysis Results

This dataset features petrographic, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy Analyses of core samples from well 16A(78)-32, which serves as the injection well for the Utah FORGE Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) project. In addition to an overview of the analysis, the following items have been included here: images of 21 entire thin sections in plane-polarized and cross-polarized light from 16 depths, scanning electron microscope back scatter electron photomosaic maps of 21 thin sections from 16 depths, bulk XRD data from 16 depths, clay-sized XRD patterns from 16 depths, an optical petrography report, and scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy analyses of eight selected samples.
