Popis: The present study is aimed at providing a brief overview of the Italian acidic waters based on literature and unpublished data. Acidic waters in Italy, as elsewhere, are relatively common and associated with extremely variable geological settings. Owing to their peculiar features, these waters may seriously affect the environment and the ecosystems. Along the Apennine belt, the western and inner sectors of the Italian peninsula record an anomalous geothermal gradient, mostly overlapping with the Neogene-to-present magmatism, that explains the presence of a huge amount of CO2(H2S)-rich gas and thermal water discharges, geothermal fields (e.g. Larderello and Mt. Amiata) and ore deposits (e.g. Fe- and polymetallic sulfides, e.g. Elba Island and Colline Metallifere). Acidic waters (pH
