Metadata 1660
This database contains information on reserved and non-reserved mineral deposits, prognosticated mineral resources, exhausted and abandoned deposits and resources, non-prospective areas, negative results of exploration, and geographic location of mineral resources.
Location of the existing and planned deep geothermal installations (updated in April 2023) in North-West Europe including District heating and Electricity plants.
The database contains information on approvals of exploration for reserved minerals. This includes the information on the spatial delimitation of the exploration area, on the mineral for which the exploration was approved, on the validity of this approval and on the organization. Also listed as “Registry of Exploration Areas”.
Extend of the study area DGE-ROLLOUT, Upper Rhine Graben
The facies map represents the main sedimentary environment deposit of the Dinantian (Lower Carboniferous) in NWE. It was compiled after the palaeogeographic maps of Van Hulten (2012) https://popups.uliege.be/1374-8505/index.php?id=3778), Smit et al. (2018) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2018.01.004), and Arndt et al. (2020) https://www.gd.nrw.de/zip/scriptumonline-16_2020-09.pdf.
Zones, where rocks have been broken and displaced. Faults, which may cause geotechnical problems while drilling or problems with cementation for closed loop systems.
The Tectonic Map of Switzerland 1:500,000 illustrates the structural and tectonic units of the entire area of Switzerland and adjoining regions: here only the tectonic faults are illustrated. It constitutes an excellent tool for discovering Switzerland geologically and for understanding its environment. It is also an essential aid for education in the earth and environmental sciences. This product is part of the GeoMaps 500 series. It is available as a printed map (folded or plano), pixelmap or vector data...
This database contains information on deep origin geothermal energy resources and potential underground reservoirs where to store thermal energy.
The public-domain FODD contains data on more than 900 metal mines, unexploited deposits and significant mineral occurrences within Fennoscandia . It covers the Precambrian shield and the Caledonides of Norway, Sweden, Finland and NW Russia).
Zones possibly affected by periodic flooding.
