Abstract
The chemical characteristics of the spring waters have been used to the relationship of the different groups of springs to each other and to the deeper aquifer. The composition and temperature of the deep water is deduced. Comparisons are drawn between these fluids and those found at Te and which are also located on the down-thrown side of the Paeroa Fault, and with Waiotapu waters.
