5. National Geothermal Database System – Colorado Databases  Completed Databases:  Thermal springs & wells, water chemistry, geothermometry; geothermal bibliography; heat flow & geothermal gradient maps; bottom-hole- temperatures (BHTs), corrected BHTs & BHT geothermal gradients; draft BHT gradient maps of individual sedimentary basins; active fault data.  Databases In Progress:  Temperature-depth logs; thermal conductivity data; radiogenic heat production data; co- produced fluids; earthquakes.

6. National Geothermal Database System – New Data Collection  Geothermal Gradients/Heat Flow  Poncha Hot Springs, Cañon City Embayment, …  Radiogenic Heat Production  Major granitic bodies, all ages, statewide  Water and Gas Chemistry  Selected springs, statewide: pm session, Elisabeth Easley  12-month record of Temperature/Flow  Selected springs, statewide
