Abstract
The geothermal zone spread in Macedonia is associated with geothermal manifestations (mainly hot springs and wells with temperature from 20-79 degC) at more than 50 localities. It is believed that only low temperature fields exist. Almost all hydrogeothermal systems are related to an ancient subduction zone of Jurassic age, along the Rodopian mass and Dinarides known as Vardar tectonic unit. The most important hydrogeothermal systems are in the Skopje valley, Kochany valley, Strumica valley, Gevgelia valley, and Kozuf Mountain and Kratovo- Zletovo volcanic area.
