THE MINERAL SPRINGS OF MALNAŞ BĂI
Melinda VIGH
ABSTRACT. – . Malnaş Băi is situated in the south of the postvulcanic alignment of the volcanic mountains of the Oriental Carpathians. Underground waters in their way to the surface are strongly charged with mineral salts and gases. So mineral springs appear along the structural faults. It falls into the category of alkaline waters. In Malnaş Băi, the most important spring is Maria, where the water is capitalized by bottling. The other springs lie on another alignment, right in the center of the resort. Quantitative-quality determinations of water have been made since the beginning of the 20th century. At the other springs a measurement campaign was carried out in December 2018. Different parameters were determined on the field and in the laboratory.
Keywords: mineral water, geological structure, hydro-mineral reservoir, spring, parameters, standard deviation, fixed residue.
