The stable isotopes of water (δD and δ18O) and hydrogeochemistry (Cl and B) of hot and cold groundwater (springs and boreholes) as well as surface waters (rivers, streams and lakes) were used to trace the origin of these water sources, mixing of waters types, the degree of primary rock leaching and...
