Geothermal Energy Potential in Afghanistan
Surface Indications of Geothermal
Prospects of Afghanistan
Map shows thermal waters with a surface
T of more than 20ºC.
Due to the collision of many Gondwanan
microplates moving northwards onto the southern
margin of Eurasian plate, the strongest Neotectonic
movements and intensive associated hydrothermal
activities are evidenced south of the Hindu Kush
main axis or the Herat-Panjshir geosuture. Thus,
major geothermal manifestations are located along
the Herat-Panjshir geosuture and the Chaman-Moqor
fault systems in central Afghanistan active terrain.
