| Abstract | The hot springs located in the metamorphic terrain of Taiwan, are mostly of the sodium bicarbonate type, having a temperature range of 40°C to 99°C. Active exploration of the geothermal resources has been carrying on in the Chingshui, Tuchang and Lushan geothermal fields which are underlain chiefly by the Miocene Lushan Formation. The Mining Research and Service Organization , ITRI an the Chinese Petroleum Corporation are conducting the exploration and evaluation of these fields at present. |
