Fallon FORGE: Well Data, Geophysical Data, and Geologic Maps

Published by Sandia National Laboratories | Department of Energy | Catalog Last Checked: May 07, 2026 at 08:26 PM | Dataset Last Updated: July 07, 2025 at 03:59 PM
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.
