AssrRAcr The SH2 well(2498.7 m) was drilled vertically in 1982-1983by an AGIP-ENEL Joint Venture as an exploratory hole to assessthe geothermal potential of the area north of Bracciano Lake, Latium, Italy, located in the Sabatini volcanic district. Drill-cutting sam- ples from a thermometamorphic-metasomaticzone (1 140-2498.7 m) contain hydrother- mal anhydrite + phlogopite (+ + pyrite) and other authigenic volatile-rich phases. Microthermometry of primary and secondarytwo-phase [vapor (V) + liquid (L)] and multiphase (V + L * crystals)liquid-rich inclusions in anhydrite yields pressure-corrected temperatures of homogenization (trapping temperatures)that range from 144 to 304'C and that are generally coincident with measuredin-hole temperatures.The fluids have a variable salinity from 0.5 to 14.0 wto/oNaCl equivalent and also contain Ca2+ at least. Rare liquid COr-bearing aqueousinclusions have been verified by laser Raman spectros- copy. Also, rare liquid hydrocarbons(?)have beenobserved. Clathrates have been observed upon freezing, and crushing studies reveal noncondensablegas at P > I atm in some inclusions. Euhedral to subhedral phlogopite crystals (-0.5 to -2 mm) commonly are zoned and contain solid inclusions ofanhydrite and apatite and two-phase (V * L) and multiphase (V + L + crystals)fluid inclusions. Microthermometry of primary two-phase inclusions yields pressure-correctedtemperatures of homogenization (trapping tempera- tures) that range from 178 to 298 oC and are also generallycoincident with in-hole mea- sured temperatures. Freezing studies show a variable fluid salinity (0.2-7.8 wto/oNaCl equiv.); the fluid contains Ca2+at least. If we assumethat the current hydrologic regime existed during anhydrite and phlogopite formation, the pressureof formation ranged from - 148to -220bars for phlogopite(1600--2500 m) and - 120to -220bars for anhydrite (1300--2500 m). Hence, the phlogopite and other authigenic phaseshave crystallized from a low P-2, volatile-rich, generallydilute, geothermal solution. Detailed microprobe analysesof fluid inclusion-bearing indicate that they are nearly end member, Fer/(Fe, + Mg) : 0.02 to 0.1 and the t4tAlper I I oxygen equiv- alentsvaries from 1.0 to 1.35.F, BaO, and TiO, rangefrom 2.4 to 5.0 wt0/0,0 to 3.5 wt0/0, and 0.1 to 0.89 wt0/0,respectively, and an Fe2+-Favoidance is observed. Various cation substitutional schemesappear to be operative and are assessed.The dark zones are Fe- rich, but may have more or lessF, BaO, or TiO, than the light zones.xRF-KEvEx analysis of eight anhydrite samplesyield averagevalues (ppm) of Sr: 5500, Ba : 1900, Rb : 250' Ce: 140,and La: 100. The variation of fluid-inclusion salinities, the phlogopite zoning, and the chemical vari- ation of the anhydrite and phlogopite suggestthat different fluids and/or episodic condi- tions were operative in this geothermal system.

basis of the various minerals recorded throughout the SH2 well, Cavarretta and Tecce (1987) have suggested that the ascendinghydrothermal solutions were rich in SO, + CO, plus other volatiles (B, HD and that perhaps a shallow Ca-rich fluid was present. They also have de- bated the hypothesisthat the brine was, in part, the result of remobilization of sedimentary (Triassic) sulfates in a low-pressureenvironment. They have concludedthat the hydrothermal solution and heat source was a magma of possible trachytic (or less differentiated) composition with a high volatile content that intruded in a subvolcanic en- BRACCIANOLAKE vironment in the northern Bracciano Lake area. The study of fluid inclusions in hydrothermal minerals may allow an evaluation of the fluid composition, tem- XA perature,and hydrology at the time of trapping, thus pro- CB viding information on the evolution of the geothermal systems(e.g., Browne et al., 1976; Taguchi and Hoyashi, {c 1983;Belkin et al., 1986).We have studiedthe fluid in- r Skm r /o clusions and mineral chemistry of the authigenic assem- blageof anhydrite and phlogopite.
