GROUND
Grounded to ENVO:01001851 'geothermally active field' (BROAD). PREGO grounded this concept to ENVO's geothermal field, which ENVO has since obsoleted and marked as replaced by this term. BROAD rather than EXACT: the obsolete term was defined as an area where wells can be drilled to obtain elements in hot brines or to tap heat energy, while the replacement is any field in which geothermal processes occur, so only a drillable subset of it matches. The separate GOLD-sourced geothermal field concept stays ungrounded and is not merged by this row. (source concept habitatmech:PREGO.0aa17935ef)
