Abstract
This report describes a composition, pore space structure and petrophysical characteristics of artificial silica deposits in Pauzhetskoe geothermal field (South Kamchatka, Far East, Russia) which are formed from waste thermal water disposed after steam separation. The possibilities of their utilization in industry, cosmetology and balneology are discussed.
