Deep groundwater total dissolved solids mapping in the Dakota Group, Williston Basin, USA Deep groundwater total dissolved solids mapping in the Dakota Group, Williston Basin, USA
Growing concern about the quantity of available freshwater around the world has led to interest in surveying groundwater total dissolved solids (TDS) below water well depths. Deep TDS has not been systematically mapped, and there is much to learn about the distribution and controls on deeper groundwater. In sedimentary basins across the United States, groundwater resources often overlie

Resistivity imaging over porphyry copper systems in the Red Mountain district, southwest Colorado, USA Resistivity imaging over porphyry copper systems in the Red Mountain district, southwest Colorado, USA
The Red Mountain district in southwestern Colorado produced base and precious metals hosted in breccia pipes and vein structures related to an extensive lithocap that overlies pervasive quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration. A helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic survey flown over the district yielded resistivity values that range from tens to thousand or more ohm-m, with lesser...

Geophysical data provide three dimensional insights into porphyry copper systems in the Silverton caldera, Colorado, USA Geophysical data provide three dimensional insights into porphyry copper systems in the Silverton caldera, Colorado, USA
The Silverton caldera in southwest Colorado, USA hosts polymetallic veins and pervasively altered rocks indicative of porphyry copper systems. Nearly a kilometer of erosion has exposed multiple levels of the hydrothermal systems from shallow lithocaps down to quartz-sericite-pyrite veins. New airborne electromagnetic and magnetic survey data are integrated with previous alteration...
