Fallon FORGE: Geophysics and Geochemistry
The data is associated to the Fallon FORGE project and includes mudlogs for all wells used to characterize the subsurface, as wells as gravity, magnetotelluric, earthquake seismicity, and temperature data from the Navy GPO and Ormat. Also included are geologic maps from the USGS and Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology for the Fallon, NV area.

"description": "Gravity data were acquired over the Fallon Prospect in Churchill County, Nevada for Ormat Nevada Inc. The gravity survey was conducted during the period of January 17 through January 24, 2007. A total of 776 new gravity stations were surveyed with 745 stations located along a 230m rectangular grid and 31 regional gravity stations spaced in 400 meter intervals along roads outside the main survey area. Relative gravity measurements were made with LaCoste & Romberg Model-G gravity meters. Topographic surveying was performed with Trimble Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) and Fast-Static GPS. Field operations were based out of Fallon. Gravity data were processed to Complete Bouguer Gravity. Maps of Complete Bouguer Gravity, Horizontal Gravity Gradient, Regional Gravity, and Residual Gravity were prepared and are included with this report."

"description": "Data were acquired at approximately 400, 800, and 1600 meter intervals for a total of 1,243 stations. The station distribution for this survey was designed to complete regional gravity coverage in the Carson Sink area without duplication of available public and private gravity coverage. Gravity data were acquired using a Scintrex CG-5 gravimeter and a LaCoste and Romberg (L&R) Model gravimeter. The CG-5 gravity meter has a reading resolution of 0.001 milligals and a typical repeatability of less than 0.005 milligals. The L&R gravity meter has a reading resolution of 0.01 milligals and a typical repeatability of 0.02 milligals. The basic processing of gravimeter readings to calculate through to the Complete Bouguer Anomaly was made using the Gravity and Terrain Correction software version 7.1 for Oasis Montaj by Geosoft LTD."

"description": "Magnetic anomalies are due to variations in the Earth's magnetic field caused by the uneven distribution of magnetic minerals (primarily magnetite) in the rocks that make up the upper part of the Earth's crust. The features and patterns of the magnetic anomalies can be used to delineate details of subsurface geology, including the locations of buried faults and magnetite-bearing rocks and the depth to the base of sedimentary basins. This information is valuable for mineral exploration, geologic mapping, and environmental studies."
