Popis: | The Magumsan thermal waters of the southeastern Korean Peninsula are pumped out of six deep wells (average depth, 300 m) at temperatures of 30.8&ndash 49 ° C. The thermal waters are chemically classified into two groups: NaHCO3 type (< 31 ° C) and NaCl (HCO3, SO4) type (> 40 ° C), both of which have chemical compositions that are distinct from local groundwater (Ca&ndash HCO3 type). &delta 18O and &delta D values suggest that the thermal waters originate from meteoric water and they are isotopically fractionated by silicate hydration or H2S exchange. &delta 34S values (+7.0 to +15%) of dissolved sulfate in the thermal waters reflect enrichment in 34S through kinetically controlled oxidation of magmatic pyrite in the thermal aquifer and mixing with paleo-seawater. On the 3He/4He vs. 4He/20Ne diagram, the thermal waters plot along a single air mixing line of dominant crustal He, which indicates that the heat source for the thermal waters is non-volcanogenic thermal energy that is generated from the decay of radioactive elements in crustal rocks. Chalcedony geothermometry and thermodynamic equilibrium calculations using the PHREEQC program indicate a reservoir temperature for the immature thermal waters of 54&ndash 86 ° C and 55&ndash 83 ° C, respectively. |
