Hydrochemical Processes and Isotopic Study of Geothermal Springs Within Soutpansberg, Limpopo Province, South Africa

The temperature of the geothermal springs ranges from 41 ◦C to 49 ◦C (thermal/hot waters) and 53 ◦C to 69 ◦C (scalding/hyperthermal waters). The major water types are Na-Cl and Na-HCO3, which are typical of marine and deep groundwaters influenced by ion-exchange processes. The hydrochemical parameters suggest that thermal gradient, carbonate weathering, mineral dissolution, ion exchange, and evaporation are the main geochemical processes controlling the geothermal springs. The δ18O and δ2H values vary from 5.82% to 4.82% − − for δ18O and 33.5% to 24.6% for δ2H for all the geothermal spring water. The isotopic ranges of − − the groundwater are relatively smaller and more depleted than those of rainwater (δ2H = 9.8% − and δ18O = 2.7%). -
