Reservoir  properties of fault-related hydrothermally altered granites in Cornwall: Implications  for geothermal energy prospectivity           

Nathaniel Forbes Inskip,
Nick Harpers,
Robin Shail
et al.

Abstract: Granite based geothermal systems are currently being explored in Cornwall for their potential to decarbonise energy production. Fault structures, known locally as cross-courses, are being targeted due to their potential to both host fluids at depth and create zones of enhanced permeability through fault related fractures. These structures have been transmissive in the past, evidenced by mineral veins, and surrounding host rock alteration. Hydrothermal alteration has the potential to affect the petrophysical pr… Show more
