dc.description.abstractÇorak, Karakaya and Gümüşkent mineral springs are located in Nevşehir and its vicinity. The springs generally emerge along faults in the study area where the rocks have different hydrogeological properties due to the heterogeneity and tectonic activity. The marbles of the Bozçalda? metamorphic basement rocks form the confined aquifer of the springs. The hydrochemical facies of the springs are Na-Ca-HCO3 of Karakaya cold springs, Ca-HCO3 of Gümüşkent mineral springs; and Na-CI-HCO3 of Çorak and Karakaya mineral waters, respectively. Because of the gas-mineral-water interaction, total mineralization are high in a CO2 dominated and low temperature mineral waters. Ionic quantities of Çorak and Karakaya mineral waters are higher due to the high solubility of evaporates. Based on the environmental isotope (18O, 2H, 3H) and water chemistry analyses, the springs are of meteoric origin. Çorak and Karakaya mineral waters might be contributed by older waters. The Karakaya cold spring is shallow circulated, while the mineral springs which have high the free CO2-gas are deep circulated groundwaters.
