Arsenic in the hot springs in the Yunnan-Sichuan-Tibet Geothermal Province, China

The Yunnan-Sichuan-Tibet Geothermal Province (YST) in China is characterized by extremely high terrestrial heat flow and widely distributed hydrothermal systems, which are discharging geothermal waters with a wide range of arsenic concentrations. In this paper, the distribution of arsenic in the YST...

description The Yunnan-Sichuan-Tibet Geothermal Province (YST) in China is characterized by extremely high terrestrial heat flow and widely distributed hydrothermal systems, which are discharging geothermal waters with a wide range of arsenic concentrations. In this paper, the distribution of arsenic in the YST geothermal waters are presented, the general hydrochemistry of these waters is described, and the primary geochemical processes controlling the concentrations and speciation of geothermal arsenic in YST is considered.
