A., Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521 U. S. A. SASS, J. H., U. S. Geological Survey, Office of Earthquakes, Volcanoes & Engineering, Tectonophysics Branch, 2255 N. Gemini Drive, Flagstaff, AZ 86001 INTRODUCTION In March 1986, a research borehole, called the "State 2-14", reached a depth of 3.22 km in the Salton Sea Geothermal System (SSGS), on the delta of the Colorado River, in Southern California (Figure 1). This was part of the Salton Sea Scientific Drilling Project (SSSDP), the first major (Le., multi-million U. S. dollar) research drilling project in the Continental Scientific Drilling Program of tne U. S. A. The principal goals of the SSSDP were to investi­ gate the physical and chemical processes going on in a high-temperature, high-salinity, hydrothermal system. The borehole encountered temperatures of up to 355°C and p'roduced metal­ rich, alkali chloride brines containing 25 weight per cent of total dissolved solids. The rocks penetrated exhibit a progressive transition from unconsolidated lacustrine and deltaic sediments to hornfelses, with lower amphibolite facies mineralogy, accompanied by pervasive copper, lead, &inc, and iron ore mineral. The SSSDP included an intensive program of rock and fluid sampling, flow testing, and downhole logging and scientific measurement (Elders and Sass, 1988). The pur­ pose of this paper is to -describe briefly the background of the project and the drilling and testing of the borehole, and to summari&e some of the important scientific results.

  • The Salton Trough Rift MICHAEL A
    I Par 76 SUCMA Spec . Pug . 95-1 The Salton Trough Rift MICHAEL A . McKIBBEN Department of Earth Sciences, University of Callfomw, Riverside CA 92521 ABSTRACT The Salton Trough rift is manifested geomorphically as the Imperial Valley in southern California and the Mexicali Valley in northern Baja California. These valleys are major areas for agriculture, game fish, and waterfowl migration and management . Major nonrenewable resources include metallic minerals (primarily gold) and industrial minerals (primarily gypsum and aggregate) . Two of the world's largest liquid-dominated geothermal energy fields are located in the rifts the Salton Sea field in California and the Cerro Prieto field in Mexico. The Salton Trough is an active continental rift, underlain by a fragmented oceanic ridge spreading system into which has been deposited the delta of the Colorado River . Deposition of the delta has significantly influenced the character of mineralization in the rift. The combination of magmatic heat sources, thick porous sediments, tectonic activity, and saline lakes has provided a unique environment for the accumulation and movement of metalliferous hydrothermal brines.

  • Geology of the Salton Trough
    Geology of the Salton Trough edited by David L. Alles Western Washington University e-mail: [email protected] Last Updated 2011-10-28 Note: In PDF format most of the images in this web paper can be enlarged for greater detail. 1 Introduction Geologists call the area that roughly includes the Coachella and Imperial Valleys of southern California, and the western half of the Mexicali Valley and the Colorado River delta in Mexico, the Salton Trough. This region of southern California and northwestern Mexico is an area of intense geological activity. The Salton Trough is a complex transition zone between the right-lateral motion of the San Andreas transform fault system, and the northwestward progressing spreading ridge complex of the Gulf of California segment of the Eastern Pacific Rise. The East Pacific Rise is a tectonic spreading center between the Pacific and North American plates that has jumped inland from the Pacific coast and captured a portion of the North American plate. This captured sliver of land includes all of central and southern California west of the San Andreas fault, and all of the Baja Peninsula including the northern portion of Baja California east to the delta of the Colorado River. As the East Pacific Rise separated this land mass from the North American plate it formed the Gulf of California. Spreading faster at its southern end, it has formed a long narrow wedge between the mainland of Mexico and the Baja Peninsula. The northern tip of this tectonic wedge ends on dry land at San Gorgonio Pass near Palm Springs, California.
