It’s the first industry-discovered blind site in more than three decades, said Carl Hoiland, co-founder at Zanskar. “The idea that geothermal is tapped out has been the narrative for decades,” but that’s far from the case. He believes there are many more hidden sites across the Western US.

This is a press release.
Geothermal potential is known [https://www.nrel.gov/gis/geothermal](https://www.nrel.gov/gis/geothermal)
What the press release is saying is that the company can narrow it down to maybe a 100 foot radius. They are still going to have to drill multiple wells to see the extent and potential. Drilling is expensive. Then if it is dry rock, they need to provide water.
