Abstract:Southern Jining city is located in Jining depression of Luxinan hidden uplift in Shandong province. Through analysis of geological investigation, geophysical prospecting and drilling verification, it is showed that geothermal resource in southern Jining city belongs to low temperature strata bound fissure type geothermal field. Through preliminary estimation, total amount of thermal storage of geothermal resources of Ordovician limestone in this region is 3.424 x 1017J, which is equivalent to standard coal of 1.17 x 107 t. It has a quite considerable prospect for development and utilization.
