Claim 11:
12. A method of operating a geothermal system, the method comprising:
during formation of an underground chamber in an underground reservoir of magma:
forming a wellbore extending between a surface and an underground reservoir of magma; and
providing a flow of a pressurized fluid into the underground reservoir of magna, thereby displacing magma from the underground reservoir of magma and forming the underground chamber, the underground chamber comprising a cavity formed in the underground reservoir of magma, wherein at least a portion of an internal surface of the underground chamber comprises hardened magma; and

during, heat transfer operations between the surface and the underground reservoir of magma;
providing a heat transfer fluid down the wellbore and into the underground chamber;
receiving heated heat transfer fluid from the wellbore; and
providing the heated heat transfer fluid to a thermal process.
