Title: Principal facts for new gravity stations in the Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley areas, Nye County, Nevada

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7012· OSTI ID:7012

Regional gravity and aeromagnetic maps of the Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley region indicate the presence of several structures that may influence the flow of groundwater. For example, several prominent linear features expressed by both gravity and aeromagentic data could act either as barriers or conduits for groundwater. The current gravity study was undertaken to better define the boundaries of the interpreted major regional structures in the area.
