Abstract
More than 70 areas with thermal surface manifestations have been mapped in Bolivia. A few of them were studied in detail. Some geological and general characteristics of these manifestations show their importance and potential for future development. At present, available. data include geological, geochemical and geophysical studies made for other purposes than geothermal explorations. A feasibility study was carried out in the southwestern part of the Bolivian territory. United Nations Revolving Fund for Natural Resources ranks Bolivia as being a country with two prospects ready for exploration drilling and a number of prospects ready for pre-feasibility work.
