Abstract
This study presents new data on major, trace and REE element concentration of groundwaters in Lastochka spa located in the northern part of Primorye, Far East of Russia. The studied area is characterized by two types of groundwaters issued from a spring and wells: fresh waters with low mineralization (Total Dissolved Solids is up to 400 mg/l) and high pCO2 waters with high mineralization (TDS is up to 4700 mg/l). New data and previous δ13C(TIC), oxygen (δ18O) and hydrogen (δ2H) isotope data indicate that these waters result from meteoric water infiltration in the Sikhote–Alin mountain, circulating at shallow depths in sedimentary rocks. CO2 in groundwater is of mantle origin.
