Geochemical approach to the Bou Hadjar hydrothermal system (NE Algeria)
مقال من تأليف: Kedaid, Fatima-Zohra ; Mesbah, Mohamed ;
ملخص: The Bou Hadjar low-temperature hydrothermal system is located in northeast Algeria. The four main thermal springs that are the subject of the study emerge ith temperatures between 32 and 60[deg]C from allochthonous formations. The reservoir temperature has been estimated from chemical compositions by utilizing simultaneously the silica, gas and sulfate-water oxygen isotope geothermometers, fluid-mineral equilibrium calculations, and a mixing model. According to these thermometric methods, the most probable subsurface temperature is in the range 75-106[deg]C. The mixing model suggests a temperature of 125[deg]C for the parent water.
