Abstract
The DeepGeo project is assessing the setting of potential deep geothermal reservoir targets in the Midland Valley Terrane (MVT) by modelling and integration of aeromagnetic, gravity and radiometric data acquired as part of the Tellus Survey. These data are combined with processed satellite imagery data, in order to further characterise and delineate potential geothermal targets associated with the documented buried intrusions of the MVT. The outcome of this research will generate new geophysical and geological models integrated with historical datasets and provide conceptual exploration model of potential deep geothermal targets in areas where potential there is a potential for high heat usage or, subject to the suitability of the targets where electricity
