Baseline Groundwater Quality before Shale Gas Development in Xishui, Southwest China: Analyses of Hydrochemistry and Multiple Environmental Isotopes (<sup>2</sup>H, <sup>18</sup>O, <sup>13</sup>C, <sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr, <sup>11</sup>B, and Noble Gas Isotopes)

The baseline quality of pre-drilling shallow groundwater is essential for the evaluation of potential environmental impacts of shale gas development. The Xishui region in the northern Guizhou Province of Southwest China has the potential for shale gas development but there is a lack of commercial pr...
