Application of Electromagnetic Method in Geothermal Investigation in the Inner Mongolia

Abstract

Geothermal energy is an important type of renewable energy. It can be easily mined at low cost, and has the advantages of no pollution and recycling utilization. The exploitation of geothermal energy can bring about significant economic, social and environmental benefits. The base for geothermal energy exploitation is the exploration of geothermal field. Analysis of the geological background of regional structure and heat control, collect adjacent areas geological data in Inner Mongolia with the use of electromagnetic sounding.

Systematic Analysis of Geothermal Resources in the Coastal Bedrock Area of Chunxiao Town (China) by Using Geochemistry and Geophysics Methods

“…From the resistivity distribution in the ground, structural and stratigraphic information could be obtained, and the condition of the occurrence and circulation of the geothermal system could also be determined. So far, this method has been successfully applied in the United States, New Zealand, Turkey, Iceland, China, and other areas all over the world [15][16][17].…”
