Geothermal resources of Hachijojima
Geothermics, 2000Abstract Hachijojima is a gourd-shaped volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean. Nishiyama and Higashiyama volcanoes consist of basalt lava and associated pyroclastic rocks. A promising geothermal resource was found in south Higashiyama, associated with an uplift of Tertiary rocks consisting of mainly andesite lava and related pyroclastic rocks, overlain

Geothermal resources in Bolivia
Geothermics, 1988In 1975 preliminary geothermal investigations were carried out in Bolivia by an Italian mission. The report (Marinelli, 1975) concluded that there was definitely a possibility of finding favourable areas for geothermal exploitation in Bolivia. In 1976 the Bolivian Electric Company (ENDE), the Bolivian Geological Service (GEOBOL), and the United Nations

Geothermal resource energetics
Geothermics, 1974Abstract The theory of geothermal heat extraction is discussed on the basis of three simple idealized models, that is, (1) single fracture flow, (2) intergranular flow and (3) intergranular vaporization models. Theoretical expressions for the total available specific resource energy per unit area or unit volume are given.

Utilisation of geothermal resources
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2009For centuries, geothermal energy has been used for bathing, cooking and space heating. More recently, district heating, industrial processing and geothermal heat pumps have become part of the direct-use mix. Geothermal electric power generation began in Italy in 1904, with the first commercial plant operational in 1913.

Geothermics, 1988
Abstract Burma is one of the countries with geothermal resources that could represent an additional source of energy for fulfilling its future requirements. Under the guidance of the Ministry of Energy preliminary investigations have recently begun on 43 hot springs in 16 areas.

Geothermal Resource Exploration
1982Exploration for geothermal resources in the Basin and Range geomorphic province of the western United States is much akin to mineral resource exploration. In this region, potential geothermal resources are located at or near zones of intersection of normal faults, where fracture permeability permits deep circulation of meteoric water into high ...

Geothermal resources of Zambia
Geothermics, 1988Abstract The hot springs of Zambia are associated with zones of major deep seated fault and fracture systems along which water of mainly meteoric origin circulates to great depths and is heated by normal geothermal gradients. The chemistry of the hot spring waters at the surface represents the effect of a predominantly hot water rock interaction ...
