Tintina fault core analysis for potential geothermal development

A 500m exploratory well was drilled in the Ross River region in the Yukon to determine if the area warrants further geothermal research. The well is located along a laterally extensive dextral strike-slip fault, named the Tintina fault. Core analyses were conducted to evaluate the potential for deve...
