: To obtain accurate insights into the deep-seated tectonics and basin regime of Tattapani Thermal Spring (TTS), several measures are recommended. Firstly, conducting a gravity survey with a suitable design is crucial. Secondly, preliminary drilling up to a depth of 1 km is advised to determine the exact temperature of TTS at deeper levels. To evaluate the feasibility of a geothermal power plant, it is recommended to conduct geotechnical analysis to assess the surrounding rock's strength. A comprehensive geochemical analysis is also suggested to determine geothermometry at deeper levels and assess the impact of potential groundwater contamination on the local community. In addition, the project's potential environmental consequences should be carefully considered, and local communities and stakeholders should be engaged throughout the exploration and development process. Lastly, developing a comprehensive exploration plan that includes a timeline, budget, and risk assessment, as well as contingency plans for unforeseen circumstances, is critical to the success of the project.
