Abstract :
In this study, hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical properties of Barutlusu and Pınarbası springs which are called attention due to temperatures and different hydgeochemical properties and are situated in Tefenni district of Burdur province are investigated. Barutlusu and Pınarbası springs have been discharged from overthrust zone which are developed between allochthonous Kızılcadag ophiolite and Dutdere limestone. The discharge temperature of Barutlusu and Pınarbası springs are 17.6 °C and 27 °C, respectively. Hydrogeochemical facies of Barutlusu and Pınarbası springs are Na-CO3-Cl and Ca-Mg-HCO3, respectively. Barutlusu spring is oversaturated to adularia, albite, analcime, aragonite, calcite, chalcedony, dolomite, quartz, sanidine, illite, kaolinite, microcline and muscovite minerals. Pınarbası spring is also oversaturated to adularia, albite, analcime, halite, muscovite, quartz, sanidine, illite, kaolinite and microcline minerals. It is undersaturated to anhydrite, aragonite, calcite, chalcedony, magnesite and dolomite minerals. Although Barutlusu spring water has higher temperature than according to springs which are located in this region, its temperature is not increased due to absence of cover rock. The reservoir rock of Pınarbası spring is Dutdere limestone and the cover rock is Çameli formation. The heat source of Pınarbası spring is probably the high geothermal gradient resulting from the tectonic regime. The reservoir temperature of the spring was determined max 83.29 °C according to silica geothermometer techniques. These waters are meteoric origin according to natural isotope contents.
