Survei geologi daerah Talago Biru Kabupaten Tanah Datar Provinsi Sumatera Barat
utilization of geothermal energy for electric power is expected to continue to increase by 9.2% per year, one of the efforts is to conduct geothermal research using geological and geochemical methods in the area of Padang Ganting, Tanah Datar District, West Sumatra. Geological environtment of the research area is in south-eastern of mount Merapi or eastern part of the lake Singkarak. The research area include on Semangko fault at Singkarak depression segment, in the transition zone between the volcanic arc and the central sumatra basin. Based on geological data, obtained 12 lithology units dominated by Tertiary clastic sedimentary rocks and Pre-Tertiary granite and volcanic rocks such as Quaternary lava and pyroclastic flows, based on the of surface manifestation from 8 manifestation indicate the water type is dissolution water (Sulfate-Bicarbonate), which shows are on the outflow zones associated with hydrothermal volcanic. Geological structures that develop are generally trending on NNE-SSW direction of the Sumatra fault and become a control the appearance of the surface manifestation. Recharge area derived from high topography around mount Merapi and mount Sago that is located in the north of research area.
