Upper Spencer Gulf (100% owned)

"An Engineered Geothermal Systems (EGS) project with potential for both electricity production and water desalination."

  

The Project

The Upper Spencer Gulf project, covering 1,938 km2 along the Upper Spencer Gulf coast, has the potential to provide geothermal energy to power seawater desalination projects or electricity production.  A 275 kV power line is situated along the eastern edge of the geothermal licences and two 275 kV lines are situated at the northern edge.

Green Rock Energy's exploration licences cover an area from south of Whyalla on the Eyre Peninsula, north to Port Augusta and then south along the east coast of the Spencer Gulf to below Port Pirie in South Australia.

Sections of the tenements are underlain by the prospective Hiltaba Suite granitic rocks.  These granites contain the same radiogenic hot granite Suite which the Company is exploiting at Olympic Dam and provide the heat source for the geothermal energy.
