Diffuse Gases in Geochemical Exploration of the Southeast Zone, Ahuachapän Geothermal Field 2020

Summary The diffuse gas study was carried out in the southeast area of the Ahuachapan 2020 geothermal field to determine areas with the presence of a gaseous anomaly associated with structures or faults that suggest the existence of a geothermal reservoir; This geochemical technique has been considered a useful tool to identify permeable areas and active structures and that together with other studies can help to identify possible areas for deep exploration and exploitation Methodology.
