rocks where there are little to no cracks or connected pore spaces.

 Hot Rock Energy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
The prime cause of all this heat is the slow decay of isotopes of potassium, thorium and uranium that exist throughout most of the Earth in low concentrations.
Some rocks contain more of these elements and tend to be self-heating, while others contain little or no radiogenic elements.
In the Australian context, the best prospects for Hot Rock Energy are those locations where HHP granites are buried under thermal blankets of insulating sediments.

 Renewable Energy Commercialisation in Australia - Hot Dry Rock Projects - Hot Dry Rock Geothermal Reservoir Development
The aim of a hot dry rock (HDR) program is to harness the energy in these granites by injecting water into a borehole and circulating it through a permeable reservoir created by hydraulically fracturing pre-existing, minute cracks in the rock.
The injected water is superheated as it passes through the hot rocks and returned to the surface via adjacent boreholes, where it is converted to carbon-free generated electricity using conventional steam turbine technology.
The University of New South Wales (UNSW) is highly regarded, both domestically and internationally, in the field of hot rock energy (HRE) and its exploitation as a viable resource.

 SECTION 3 - sleater-kinney "the hot rock"
Love On The Rocks: After one glance of the cover of Sleater-Kinneys' new record The Hot Rock; a disturbing thought came into mind.
The cover displays the group hailing a cab on a busy street corner, and I immediately associated it with the "famous" story of Kurt Cobain refusing a limo for their first SNL appearance and taking a taxi instead.
Well though they've been put in the tough spot by many to save rock n roll they've shown with their 3rd flawless record that collectively they can handle any weight dumped on them as well as Charles Atlas.

 Barnes & Noble.com - Music: The Hot Rock, Roger Sleater-Kinney, CD
Influenced as much by classic punk rock as the totally '80s pop of the Go-Go's, singer-guitarist Corin Tucker, guitarist Carrie Brownstein, and drummer Janet Weiss make aggressive, passionate punk 'n' pop 'n' roll that's intensely personal, musically thrilling, and undeniably likable.
But if Sleater-Kinney are going to be the life-affirming antidote to the rock rut of the post-Nirvana '90s, they're going to do it with albums like THE HOT ROCK.
The Hot Rock can invite comparisons to a less jam-oriented Television or a minimalist version of indie compatriots Helium (not to mention the obvious Kim Gordon homage on "Get Up"), but in the end, it stands on its own as Sleater-Kinney's most progressive and experimental work, as well as their darkest.
