Alteration's Control on Frictional Behavior and the Depth of the Ductile Shear Zone in Geothermal Reservoirs in Volcanic Arcs

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract The majority of geothermal energy is produced in tectonically active volcanic‐arc regions due to their high geothermal gradients. Reservoirs in these settings are often stratified with smectite/kaolinite‐, illite‐, and chlorite‐rich zones, in order of increasing depth and temperature. Eighteen andesitic core and surface samples were taken from

Radiogenic Strontium‐ and Uranium‐Isotope Tracers of Water‐Rock Interactions and Hydrothermal Flow in the Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone Plateau Volcanic Field, USA

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Natural radiogenic isotopes (primarily 87Sr/86Sr) from hot springs in the Upper Geyser Basin of the Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field and associated rocks were used to evaluate groundwater flow patterns, water‐rock reactions, and the extent of mixing between various groundwater sources.

Hydro-geochemical and isotopic fluid evolution of the Los Azufres caldera geothermal field, Central Mexico

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2008
Hydrothermal alteration at Los Azufres geothermal held is mostly propylitic showing progressive dehydration with depth, and temperature increase. The evolution of this system is inferred to be related to deep liquid water, boiling when ascending through fractures connected to the surface.

Acidophilic sulphate‐reducing bacteria: Diversity, ecophysiology, and applications

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2024.
Acidophilic sulphate‐reducing bacteria (aSRB) perform dissimilatory sulphate reduction under low pH and high metal conditions. They play key roles in the sulphur and carbon cycles in natural acidic environments, emphasized by their interactions with other microbial groups, which create an intricate ecological network. Potential applications of aSRB and

Hydrothermal Signatures Discovered in Outcropping Rocks of the Los Humeros Geothermal Field (Mexico): A Geochemometric Exploration Case Study

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Hydrothermal geochemical signatures in outcropping rock samples of the super‐hot Los Humeros geothermal field were discovered by using an integrated geochemometric study of the mobility of components (major oxides) and trace elements. Chemical component and element mobilities were determined by using the Gresens–Grant equation for mass balances.

Mineralogical, chemical, and Sr-Nd isotopic effects of hydrothermal alteration of near-surface rhyolite in the Los Azufres geothermal field, Mexico

open access: yesLithos, 2018
Abstract We present a combined mineralogical, chemical, and Sr-Nd isotopic study of hydrothermal alteration effects in near-surface Pleistocene rhyolite sampled at two distinct localities from the Los Azufres geothermal field (LAGF), Mexico. The alteration mineralogy of the near-surface rocks is dominated by silica polymorph minerals (cristobalite ...

Mineralogical and geochemical effects due to hydrothermal alteration in the Los Azufres geothermal field, Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
To investigate the effects of hydrothermal alteration on the chemistry of volcanic rocks, we analyzed the whole rock chemical composition (major and trace elements, including rare-earth elements – REE) of two distinct portions of a drill well core sample
