Abstract

This layer contains favorable geochemistry for high-temperature geothermal systems, as interpreted by Richard "Rick" Zehner. The data is compiled from the data obtained from the USGS. The original data set combines 15,622 samples collected in the State of Colorado from several sources including 1) the original Geotherm geochemical database, 2) USGS NWIS (National Water Information System), 3) Colorado Geological Survey geothermal sample data, and 4) original samples collected by R. Zehner at various sites during the 2011 field season. These samples are also available in a separate shapefile FlintWaterSamples.shp. Data from all samples were reportedly collected using standard water sampling protocols (filtering through 0.45 micron filter, etc.) Sample information was standardized to ppm (micrograms/liter) in spreadsheet columns. Commonly-used cation and silica geothermometer temperature estimates are included.

Geochemistry, RNA radiocarbon signature, and metatranscriptome data from Rifle, Colorado groundwater well

Dataset Mailloux, Brian J. ; Karaoz, Ulas ; Beller, Harry R. ; ...

Understanding the different sources of carbon subsurface microbes use is highly informative yet remains challenging. The goal of this work was to develop and test a cultivation-independent method that analyzes both the radiocarbon and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) signature of unamplified RNA from the same environmental sample, and that collectively characterizes community carbon utilization under in situ conditions. The method was applied to a filtered groundwater sample from a geochemically reduced zone of a shallow alluvial aquifer near Rife, Colorado (CO), where multiple potential carbon sources co-occur. The radiocarbon and RNA-Seq results, while addressing diverse sample properties, indicated a strikingly similarmore »« less
Geochemistry of East River, Colorado floodplain sediments from Meander Z and Meander Y collected in 2017.

Dataset Fox, Patricia ; Nico, Peter

This dataset includes sediment geochemical characterization data from floodplain sediments collected as a part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (SFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The data were collected in order to investigate the role of biogeochemical cycling and other river corridor processes on riverine export of solutes. Sediment cores were collected from Meander Z (MZA, MZB) and Meander Y (MYP) just upstream of the confluence with Brush Creek in September 2017 to depths of approximately 40-95 cm in 15-20 cm intervals. Analyses include moisture content, particle size analysis, total inorganic and total organic carbon, andmore »« less
2016 Floodplain Geochemistry from the East River Watershed, Colorado

Dataset Fox, Patricia ; Dwivedi, Dipankar ; Arora, Bhavna ; ...

This dataset includes groundwater geochemistry data from floodplain piezometers collected as a part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (SFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The data were collected in order to investigate the role of hyporheic exchange and other river corridor processes on riverine export of solutes. Floodplain piezometers installed in several meanders (Meander C, Meander D, and Meander O) in the vicinity of the Pumphouse were sampled at several dates in 2016. Data includes in-field measurements (pH, electrical conductivity, oxidation reduction potential, dissolved oxygen, dissolved Fe(II), dissolved sulfide, and groundwater level) along with laboratory measurementsmore »« less

Geothermal Geodatabase for Rico Hot Springs Area and Lemon Hot Springs, Dolores and San Miguel Counties, Colorado

Dataset Zehner, Richard

This geodatabase was built to cover several geothermal targets developed by Flint Geothermal in 2012 during a search for high-temperature systems that could be exploited for electric power development. Several of the thermal springs have geochemistry and geothermometry values indicative of high-temperature systems. In addition, the explorationists discovered a very young Climax-style molybdenum porphyry system northeast of Rico, and drilling intersected thermal waters at depth. Datasets include: 1. Structural data collected by Flint Geothermal 2. Point information 3. Mines and prospects from the USGS MRDS dataset 4. Results of reconnaissance shallow (2 meter) temperature surveys 5. Air photo lineaments 6.more »« less
