Mixing processes and water-rock interaction in contrasting geologic environments of Mexico and Hungary Chapter uri icon

abstract

  • A hydrochemical comparison between a carbonate (Mexico) and a non-carbonate (Hungary) system is presented. Major and trace elements, δ2H and δ18O values were studied. Although the geological conditions and the concentration of the major elements were different, common features and/or processes were recognized. The main similarity was the distribution of the stable isotope δ values (meteoric and non-meteoric water), and the behavior of As and Mo oxy-anions. Mixing with highly saline water of sea origin is an important process in both areas. © 2010 Taylor %26 Francis Group, London.
