ABSTRACT

From 1980 to 1982, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted seismicrefraction studies at the Nevada Test Site to aid in an investigation of theregional crustal structure at a possible nuclear waste repository site nearYucca Mountain. Two regionally distributed deployments and one north-southdeployment recorded nuclear events. First arrival times from thesedeployments were plotted on a location map and contoured to determinetraveltime delays. The results indicate delays as large as 0.5 s in the YuccaMountain and Crater Flat areas relative to the Jackass Flats area. A fourtheast-west deployment recorded a chemical explosion and was interpreted using atwo-dimensional computer raytracing technique. Delays as high as 0.7 s wereobserved over Crater Flat and Yucca Mountain. The crustal model derived fromthis profile indicates that Paleozoic rocks, which outcrop to the east atSkull Mountain and the Calico Hills, and to the west at Bare Mountain, lie ata minimum depth of 3 km beneath part of Yucca Mountain. These results confirmearlier estimates based on the modeling of detailed gravity data. Amid-crustal boundary at 15 + 2 km beneath Yucca Mountain is evidenced by aprominent reflection recorded beyond 43 km range at 1.5 s reduced time. Othermid-crustal boundaries have been identified at 24 and 30 km and the totalcrustal thickness is 35 km.

INTRODUCTION

During the spring of 1980 and 1981, the U.S. Geological Survey conductedpreliminary seismic refraction studies in the vicinity of Yucca Mountain,Nevada. The purpose of the study was to determine variations in thenear-surface velocity structure of the upper crust which will aid in assessingthe feasibility of nuclear waste storage in this area. These variationsconsist of changes in depth to a prevolcanic (pre-Tertiary) surface and in thethickness of near-surface lithologic units. In combination with othergeophysical data, these variations can be used to derive cross sections of theuppermost crust that are important to structural, tectonic, and hydrologicanalysis of the area.

Portable seismographs were deployed near Yucca Mountain and threeseparate nuclear events were recorded. Figure 1 shows the locations of therecording equipment and the nuclear events that were used as seismic sources.To better constrain the velocity structure of the uppermost crust anddetermine field parameters for a future detailed study, an east-west profilewas deployed in April 1982. It extended from a shot point southeast ofBeatty, Nevada, across Yucca Mountain to the Skull Mountain area of the NevadaTest Site. Figure 2 shows the recording locations and the shot point for thisadditional deployment. Data with clear first arrivals and a high signal tonoise ratio were recorded from all four sources. P(compressional)-wavearrival times can be determined on the records to an accuracy of 0.02 s.

INSTRUMENTATION AND FIELD OPERATIONS

SEISMIC RECORDERS

One hundred portable seismic recorders, each weighing approximately 40pounds and powered by two 6-volt rechargeable batteries, recorded the data inFM-analog form on 30-minute cassette tapes. The instruments were divided intofive sets of 20 units each. Five observers were responsible for the mainte-nance, deployment and accurate site location for each of the 20 units in theirdesignated set.

These seismic recorders allow much flexibility in deployment. They donot record continuously but are preprogrammed with up to ten recording times.The recording time window can vary depending on how many times the unit is torecord for each thirty-minute side of tape. Instrument electronics beginwarming up ten minutes prior to each recording time. Prior to the expectedenergy arrival time, the unit will perform a geophone release, anamplification check and a calibration sequence of , 10, 100 and 1,000 mv,with a 10 Hz signal. These are recorded on the cassette and can be referencedduring data processing for the evaluation of performance quality of theinstrument. Following the calibration sequence, the unit begins to recorddata. The geophone is a vertical-component velocity transducer with a naturalresonance frequency of two cycles per second and a motor constant of one voltper cm/s. Three data channels are used, each with a different, pre-setamplifier gain. Maximum gain is approximately 104 db; minimum gain is db.In addition, IRIG-E time signals from the internal chronometer and WWVB radiotime signals are recorded (Healy and others, 1982).

DEPLOYMENT

Since nuclear events do not always occur as scheduled, it was necessaryto program several large recording windows at estimated event times. Theseestimated times were essentially guesses based on a combination of thescheduled time of the event and experience from past recording attempts. Dueto the limited amount of tape in each recorder and the lack of field mobilityduring times of probable nuclear events, two units were placed at eachlocation with alternating recording times. This limited the data coverage tofifty locations, but resulted in the successful recording of the first twonuclear events. Continuous reprogramming of the equipment and added mobilityin the field area made it possible to occupy 100 sites to record the thirdevent.

A second complication resulting from the nuclear event delays was thatthe batteries on the recorders would run down, often causing instrumentmalfunctions. Where normally 100 sites are occupied with a 90% data recovery,the data return for these nuclear event recordings was less than 70X.

The shot time for the fourth deployment was selected by the seismicexperiment field staff and the recorders were programmed accordingly. A2,480-pound charge of ammonium nitrate was fired below the water table at alocation southeast of Beatty, Nevada. Data recovery in this instance was 85%.

DATA REDUCTION

Following each deployment, recording units were retrieved and severalpreliminary data processing steps were taken. All information pertaining tothe operation of the seismographs was entered on the team-shot data sheets(Appendix B). Shot information for the nuclear events was obtained throughpersonal communication with the Nevada Test Site Control Point. The shot timefor shot number four was picked from the shot record, a paper tape showingshot time and shot detonation. Recorder locations and elevations were deter-mined from the topographic maps. Chronometer corrections were calculated inorder to adjust for the clock drift at shot time. These data were enteredinto various computer files and used in conjunction with recorder informationfor digitizing. Following accuracy checks for errors in timing and sitelocations, the cassette tapes were digitized. Calibration settings were usedto compare data channels while digitizing and performance quality of therecorder was graded (Healy and others, 1982). Trace normalized recordsections were plotted using the standard reduction velocity of 6 km/s. (Intrace normalized plots, all seismograms in a record section have their maximumamplitude set to an equal trace width, thus producing a uniform appearance.)Some data from shot points I and 2 were plotted as fan shots with the firststation as zero distance and successive stations as a function of distancefrom that point. All lines are unreversed in that a shot was not fired fromthe opposite direction. Data from shot point 4 were filtered to remove somehigh frequency noise, and the data from some sites were omitted due tooverlapping traces.

LOGISTICS

When this project was initiated, very few roads penetrated the YuccaMountain area, making adequate coverage of the proposed repository sitedifficult. As the Yucca Mountain investigations continued more roads wereconstructed. By the 1982 deployment, the area could be covered fairly welland the east-west deployment line across the mountain was possible.

Due to this continuous road construction, the indicated roads ontopographic maps for Yucca Mountain and vicinity are very outdated. Recorderstations could not be as easily located as in normal field operations. Manysites had to be located using a Brunton compass, which tends to reduce theaccuracy in determining the location of the site. Where normally stationlocations are accurate to 25 feet, those along the unmapped roads have alarger error margin of 50 to 100 feet. All locations are indicated on Plate1, which is at a scale of 1:250,000. Location numbers on this plate are alsoindicated on the record sections.

OBSERVATIONS

SEISMIC PROFILES

Data for the first nuclear event, shot point 1, were collected in a shortnorth-south line and an extended east-west fan array (Figure 3). The secondnuclear event, shot point 2, resulted in a northeast-southwest line of dataand an east-north-east to west-southwest fan array (Figure 4). These data areof greatest value presented as delay time observations for apparent velocityanalysis.

Some of the most useful data from the nuclear event recordings wereobtained from the third nuclear event, shot point 3. Two lines deployed tothe east and west of Yucca Mountain provide the closest data to the proposedrepository (Figure 5). The distance from the source at Pahute Mesa to YuccaMountain is approximately 50 km, and at this distance all first arrivals arebasement (Pg) arrivals. The eastern profile, from Yucca Mountain to DeathValley Junction, was recorded at a distance of 48 to 110 km. Significanttraveltime variations in the first-arrival curve suggest delays in near-surface rocks that amount to 0.5 s in the Yucca Mountain area. In addition,clear reflections from the mantle and midcrust indicate layering within thecrust beneath Yucca Mountain. The western profile for shot point 3, fromYucca Mountain to the Amargosa Desert, was recorded in the distance range of52 to 86 km. The data along this profile also indicate 0.5 s delays in theYucca Mountain area and the northern data show a lower dominant frequency thanthose taken further south. This is due to the greater seismic attenuation atthe sites above thicker sections of tuff.

First arrival times (Appendix C) for shot points 1 and 3 were plotted ona location map in order to contour the reduced traveltimes in the area ofYucca Mountain. Some recorder locations were occupied for both events whichput better constraints on the traveltime correlation by enabling comparison ofarrival times from the two events. The larger delay times in the vicinity ofYucca Mountain and Crater Flat are interpreted to be due to the thicker sectionof low velocity layers (e.g., ash-flow tuffs and Cenozoic volcanic layers) inthat area . Figure 6 illustrates these delays and compares them with theBouguer gravity anomalies (Healey and others, 1980). Traveltime delays of 1.2

s or larger generally correlate with Bouguer gravity values of -140 to -170mgal, indicating that both the seismic and gravity data were affected by lowvelocity, low density volcanic material.

Data for shot point 4 (Figure 7), the chemical explosion near Beatty,Nevada, were recorded to a distance of 65 km from the shot point. Averagestation spacing along this profile was 1 km. The first arrivals are delayedover Crater Flat and Yucca Mountain by as much as 0.7 s relative to BareMountain. In addition to clear first arrivals, a prominent reflected(secondary) arrival was recorded beyond 40 km range.

TRAVELTIME DELAYS

Since all of the P-wave arrivals are from a nearly horizontal refractor,the velocity structure between that depth and the recording stations willlargely determine the relative difference in traveltime between neighboringstations. For example, considering neighboring stations at identical distancesfrom the source, the station located on outcropping Paleozoic rocks will recordsignificantly shorter traveltimes than one located on a thick sequence of ash-flow tuff due to the lower intrinsic velocity of the latter rocks relative tothe former. These differences in traveltimes can be clearly seen in thecontour map of reduced traveltimes in the study area (Figure 6).

Since the magnitude of the delay is proportional to both the depth of thehorizontal refractor and the thickness of low velocity layers beneath a givenstation, we can estimate this thickness by combining the observed delay timeswith other geophysical data. We have found that the observed delay times fallinto three groups:

1) 1.4 to 1.2 s, large delays over Crater Flat and Yucca Mountain2) 1.2 to 0.8 s, moderate delays over Jackass Flats3) 0.8 to 0.4 s, small delays over Skull and Bare Mountains

These three groups correspond to the presence of thick low velocity layers,moderately thick low velocity layers and a very thin to nonexistent lowvelocity layer, respectively (Figure 8).

Rock Velocities

Some knowledge of the velocities of the rocks within the study area isrequired in order to make use of the P-wave delay times to infer the near-surface structure. Four sources of information were used to estimate the rockvelocities: local geologic studies, seismic refraction surveys, boreholemeasurements, and the subsurface density distribution as inferred frommodeling of detailed gravity data.

The local geology (Christiansen and others, 1977; Snyder and Carr, 1982)indicates that at least three main rock types must be considered: Precambrianand Paleozoic clastic, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks; Cenozoic ash-flowtuffs; and Cenozoic volcanics and alluvium. The velocities of these types ofrocks are known to vary from about 1.0 km/s to over 6.0 km/s and this widerange of velocities is reflected in the one-second spread in the values of thebserved P-wave delay times in the study area (Figure 8). Seismic refractionsurveys that have been conducted in the areaprovide important information onthe velocities of individual rock types (L. W. Pankratz, 1982; figure 1).These profiles at the easternmost end of this study show velocities in thealluvium of from 1.0 to 2.2 km/s, while the ash-flow tuffs are characterizedby a velocity of 2.6 to 3.2 km/s. A layer presumed to be altered argillitehas a velocity of from 3.8 to 4.5 km/s and the lowest layer has a velocity of4.4 to 5.1 km/s. The lowest layer detected is presumed to be the top of agranitic body in the profile area. The velocity in the basement refractor at

about 4 km depth is estimated to be 6.0 to 6.15 km/s based on the refractionprofiles reported by Johnson (1965) and confirmed by the profiles reported

here (Figures 3, 4, 5, and 7).

Additional information has been obtained from borehole velocity measure-ments made at two 1,830 m (6,000 ft)-deep holes on the eastern flank of Yucca

Mountain. The velocity measurements in holes G and HI (Figure 1) show

velocities in the range of 3.3 to 4.2 km/s in the 400 to 1,830 m (1,300 to

6,000 ft) interval. Furthermore, it was determined that the one-way traveltime

to the bottom of H is 0.6 s, an average velocity in the hole of 3.0 k/s (D.C. Muller, written communication, 1982).

Whereas the typical velocities of the various rock types have been

determined from the foregoing seismic measurements, the distribution of rock

types was estimated by modeling of the regional gravity (Ponce, 1981; Snyderand Carr, 1982). These comprehensive studies have proposed crustal structures

in the study area which are unlikely to be significantly improved upon untiladditional deep drilling or seismic refraction work is done. In choosing rockvelocities, therefore, care has been taken to use values which are reasonablefor the densities shown in the gravity models.

19

INTERPRETATION

The upper crustal structure in the Yucca Mountain area has been inferredfrom both the seismic P-wave delays (Figures 3, 4, and 5) and the unreversedrefraction profile from shot point 4 (Figure 7). Since the present seismicdata alone is insufficient for deriving the crustal structure in thisgeologically complex region, we have relied heavily on existing models andhave modified these to obtain new, closely related models in agreement withthe seismic observations. The results provide new details on the structure inthe study area, and have been used to define the need for further seismicinvestigations.

P-WAVE DELAY DATA

The seismic P-wave delay data from Crater Flat to Skull Mountain havebeen interpreted using the B-B' crustal density section of Snyder and Carr(1982; Figure 9) as a basis. Since the P-wave data reaches as far as SkullMountain (i.e., beyond section B-B', figure 2), their model was extrapolatedan additional 15 km to the east. The densities in their model were convertedto velocities with close reference to the available seismic information, asshown in Table 1.

TABLE IDENSITY - VELOCITY RELATIONSHIP

Density Velocity(g/c3) (km/s)

1.8 2.02.0 2.22.3 3.22.4 4.62.6 5.72.7 5.8--- 6.1

The P-wave delay times associated with this velocity model were calculatedby raytracing critically refracted rays through the model. A velocity of 6.1km/s was used for the refracting medium located at a depth of 2.3 km below sealevel (3.6 km below the surface; Figure 8). The comparison of observed andcalculated delay times indicates that the velocity model is a reasonable one;the observed delay times clearly confirm the greater depth to the pre-volcanicrocks beneath Crater Flat and Yucca Mountain. The main discrepancy betweenthe observed and calculated values occurs on Crater Flat where the observeddelay is greater than that predicted by the model. This indicates a westwardincrease in either the depth of the pre-volcanic layer or in the amount of lowvelocity near-surface materials. We note on the contour map of Figure 6 thatthe maximum delay time on Crater Flat, 1.4 s, is matched by an equal delaytime on Yucca Mountain at a location 5 km north of the profile line B-B'.This suggests that local variations in thickness of the low velocity tuffs isthe cause of the 1.4 s delay on Crater Flat, rather than a systematic westwarddeepening of the pre-volcanic layer.

Shot Point 4 Profile

The refraction profile from shot point 4 (near Beatty) to Skull Mountaindemonstrated the feasibility of recording clear refracted arrivals to adistance of 65 km in an area considered to be in a "bad data" region forseismic reflection profiling. Since the profile is unreversed, a unique modelcannot be derived with the present information, despite the high signal-to-noise ratio of the data. The data does, however, give additional control onthe existing density model of the upper crust obtained from the interpretationof gravity data.

The method of interpretation used for shot point 4 data was similar tothat applied to the P-wave delay data; the B-B' crustal section of Snyder andCarr (1982) was converted into a velocity model and traveltimes ofcompressional waves were calculated through this model, in this case bytwo-dimensional computer raytracing. A comparison of observed and theoreticaltraveltimes (Figure 9) shows that the velocity model provides a close fit tothe data, the error being +0.05 s in most places. The ray diagram shows thatthe arrivals to stations on Crater Flat and Yucca Mountain reach theirbottoming points beneath Bare Mountain, and the arrivals to Jackass Flatsbottom beneath Yucca Mountain. The diagram also makes clear that additionalshot points at 20, 40, and 60 km on the distance scale would provide excellentseismic reversal coverage along the refracting and reflecting horizons. Thetraveltimes of the prominent secondary phase recorded on this profile (Figure7) is fit by reflections from a boundary at a depth of 15 + 2 km below sealevel.

The velocities and layer boundaries used to compute the theoreticaltraveltimes in two alternative models are shown in Figure 10. In consideringthis diagram, it should be understood that the method of computation requiresthat boundaries be included wherever a change in velocity or velocity gradientis desired. Since the depth to a boundary can often be traded off againstvelocity at that boundary, the depth to some boundaries is non-unique, andsome boundaries are included only to allow a change in the velocity gradient(e.g., the boundary at a depth of 5 km in Figure 10). To distinguish theboundaries with first order geologic importance from those that are mainly theproduct of the analysis method, the former boundaries are shown as heavy solidlines and the latter by light solid lines. The two heavy lines correspond tothe volcanic/pre-volcanic boundary and to the major mid-crustal boundary at adepth of 15 + 2 km. The depth estimates to pre-volcanic rocks are 3.2 km(10,500 ft) beneath eastern Crater Flat and 1.1 km (3,650 ft) beneath JackassFlats. Whereas the gravity model of Snyder and Carr (1982) shows a singleeast-dipping contact between Bare Mountain and Crater Flat, located 3 km eastof outcropping Paleozoic rocks on Bare Mountain, the velocity model shows adistinct 2.5 km-wide bench (down-dropped block?) at a depth of 1.6 km (5,250ft). The apparent velocity of the pre-volcanic layer increases from about 5.7to about 6.0 km/s or higher within the first two kilometers. The absolutevelocity of the basement remains uncertain with the present unreversed seismicdata. A north- south reversed profile within Crater Flat is planned in orderto resolve this uncertainty and to confirm the velocity-depth structure.

Crustal velocity model derived from shot point 4 data. Averagelayer velocities are indicated in km/s. Solid lines are layerboundaries, and dashed lines are alternative boundary depthscalculated for the average layer velocities in parentheses. Theheaviy solid line above a depth of 5 km is the volcanic/pre-volcanic boundary. The mid-crustal boundary below 15 km isindicated by a heavy line where the depth is controlled bythe seismic data (c.f., Figure 9). The depth to pre-volcanicrocks (velocity greater than 5.0 km/s) is 3.2 km (10,500 ft)beneath eastern Crater Flat.

SHOT POINT 3 EAST PROFILE

Further evidence for the deep crustal structure beneath the study area isprovided by the clear secondary arrivals observed on the easternmost profilefrom shot point 3 (Figure 5). This profile recorded a crust-mantle and twointra-crustal reflections.

In view of the lack of reversal on this profile, the crustal modelderived from it was constrained by the other seismic profiles in the area. Anaverage velocity of 3.0 km/s has been used for the near-surface layer, and of6.0 km/s for the basement (Pg) refractor. The first arrivals along thisproifle show considerable scatter (Figure 11), but an average line throughthese points gives a depth to basement of 1.5 km. The first intracrustalreflection is most clearly observed at a reduced time of 2.6 s and a range of93 to 97 km (Figure 5). These arrivals can be fit by a pre-criticalreflection from a boundary at 24 km depth where the velocity increases from6.0 to 6.35 km/s (Figure 11). The second reflection occurs at a reduced timeof 3.15 to 3.55 s and a range of 86 to 97 km. These arrivals have been fit bya second pre-critical reflection from a boundary at 30 km depth where thevelocity increases from 6.35 to 6.6 km/s. Finally, the mantle reflectionsbetween 3.4 and 4.5 s and 81 to 109 km have been fit with a reflection fromthe crust-mantle boundary at a depth of 35 km. A mantle velocity of 7.8 km/shas been used based on the work of Johnson (1965). This structure isillustrated in the velocity-depth plot of Figure 11.

SUMMARY

Seismic refraction data from nuclear and chemical explosions have beenused to calculate the crustal velocity structure in the vicinity of YuccaMountain, southern Nevada. A contour map of P-wave delay times and anunreversed refraction profile have been used in conjunction with gravitymodels to estimate the configuration of pre-volcanic surface between outcropsat Bare Mountain and Skull Mountain. The models have been constrained bygeologic and geophysical information, including geologic mapping, shallowseismic refraction surveys, borehole measurements and the subsurface densitydistribution as inferred from modeling detailed gravity data. The greatestdepth to basement (somewhat more than 3 km) is beneath eastern CraterFlat-western Yucca Mountain, where a graben-like structure exists in thedeeper rocks.

The total crustal thickness has been calculated from an unreversedprofile from a nuclear shot at Pahute Mesa. The crust is 35 km thick andcontains intracrustal boundaries at 24 and 30 km; an additional boundary at15 km depth has been identified on the east-west profile across Yucca Mountain.

APPENDIX B

Master Shot List and Team-Shot Data Sheetswith Tape Grade Scale

The "Master Shot List" (page 33) is a table containing all importantinformation pertaining to each recorded shot or nuclear event. Most of theinformation is self-explanatory. "Shot Point" refers to the location numberfor that particular shot. For this experiment, the shot point and shot numberare the same. Additional information and the size of the shot are listed tothe right of the data.

The "Team-Shot Data Sheets" (pages 34-49) contain all of the informationrelated to the seismic recorders. Each set of 20 recorders is given adesignated team number under which data is stored and referenced. Each "Datafor One Team-Shot" contains shot number, team number, shot point, and shottime. Column headings for the table are explained below:

Loc - location number from the seismic recorder locationfile (Appendix A)

Dist (km) - distance in kilometers from the shot point to therecorder location

Azim - azimuthal projection from the shot point to therecorder location

Unit - I.D. number of the recording unit

Chron - chronometer correction for the recorder at shot time(calculated from the total clock drift)

Chan - channel number (1, 2, or 3) which was selected to bedigitized by the computer

C1, C2, C3 - amplifier gain setting (db) for each data recordingchannel

Tape Grade - value used to rate the performance quality of theseismic recorder (see Tape Grade Scale, following)

Additional information relevant to analysis of the data is listed to the rightof the data columns.

The "Tape Grade Scale" (page 44) is a listing of all tape grade numbersused on the Team-Shot Data Sheets. Each number corresponds to a specificproblem with the recording unit.
