Abstract
It presents a geochemical study of 10 thermal springs in the Hengjing Hot Spring Area, southern Jiangxi Province, SE-China. The surface temperatures of these springs are in the range 26 to 73?C. They are grouped in two types of water: Na-HCO3 and Ca-HCO3. The quartz geothermometer and silica-enthalpy diagram indicate the reservoir temperature in the range 80 to 155?C. The evidences show that the geothermal waters are from the low to moderate temperature geothermal reservoirs.
