| Abstract |
Helium anomalies near geothermal site are an effective guide in determining the extent of the geothermal reserves. Advanced sampling and analytical techniques for measuring helium concentrations in water, soils, and soil gases permit the exploration team to quickly collect the samples, store them in leak free containers, and send them to the laboratory for analysis. Precise analytical methods in the laboratory measure the helium in a gaseous sample to 10ppb. With these accurate results the explorer can determine potential locations for drilling and use. |
