"Data pertinent to the assessment of the geothermal energy resources of the Atlantic Provinces have been compiled and collected. Warm water in sedimentary basins and hot dry rock within Palaeozoic intrusives are considered as potential geothermal resources and, therefore, constituted the principal study areas. The study included the drilling of a 483 m deep hole in the Wedgeport batholith of Nova Scotia, to assess the potential for hot, dry rock geothermal energy. The thermal gradient is low, approximately 20mK/m, which is not high enough for further consideration of the batholith. A temperature log of the borehole drilled in 1983 in Charlottetown shows that the thermal gradient there has reached an equilibrium value of 14 mK/m"--Abstract.
