Summary

This dataset presents data and analysis from a carbonate-rock aquifer test, conducted near Long Canyon, Nevada in 2016 by Newmont Mining Corporation. Data collected during the test include tabular pumping, subsurface loss from spring supplementation and aquifer-test discharge (ditch discharge), water-levels, and weather data. Water-level, pumping, and spring data were collected and furnished by Newmont Mining Corporation. The furnished data were input into water-level models to estimate monitoring-site drawdown or rise. Water-level models were created using SeriesSEE (Halford and others, 2012), an Excel Add-in. Water-level model input files, archived water-level models, the Excel Add-in, hydrographs, and estimates of monitoring-site [...]

Purpose

Datasets were compiled and analyzed as part of a U.S. Geological Survey study, done in cooperation with the Nevada Division of Water Resources, to interpret aquifer tests and ultimately characterize the hydraulic properties of carbonate-rock and basin-fill aquifers near Long Canyon, Goshute Valley, northeastern Nevada.
