Geochemistry of carbon dioxide mineral waters of the Choigan natural complex (northeastern Tuva)

Abstract

The abundance of various chemical elements (including trace, rare-earth, and radioactive) in the carbon dioxide mineral waters of the Choigan complex has been investigated. Three groups of waters are recognized according to the geochemical conditions and chemical composition: groundwaters of regional-jointing zone with oxidizing conditions; CO₂-enriched groundwaters of regional-jointing zone with oxidizing conditions; and groundwaters of fault zones with reducing conditions. It is shown that water-rock interaction intensified by high temperature and carbon dioxide action is the main process determining the chemical composition of groundwaters.
