Abstract
Most of geothermal areas are located in seismically active regions. Because of an intensive tectonic regime, discontinuities of their lithosphere play the role of channels for powerful metallogenic heat and mass transfer processes, especially for intrusion of ultra-basic magmas with Fe, Mn etc. into the crust. Proceeding from the presence of substantial low re-
sistivity structures in seismic lithosphere zones (in accordance with numerous geophysical data and the known explanation above), we derive the mathematical model of generation and propagation of seismic
electromagnetic and temperature signals with emission into atmosphere. As a result of calculations, we give the recommendations for the seismological monitoring of geothermal areas.
