Abstract
This study is focused on warm and cold springs in Tang-Bijar oilfield of southern Iran. The springs emergefrom fractures and faultlines within the carbonate and evaporitic rocks of Zagros Thrust Belt (ZTB) andvary in temperature between 20 and 44◦C. Chemical analyses define three main chemical water asso-ciations reflecting different hydrochemical processes including: (1) Ca-HCO3,(2) Mg-SO4and (3) Na-Cl.Based on isotope analysis, meteoric water is the origin of these spring waters. Two distinct hydrogeolog-ical systems are postulated: a deep moderate-temperature (40 to 45◦C) geothermal system recharged bymeteoric waters mixed with oilfield brine and a shallow cold aquifer system related to local groundwater.
