Abstract

Based on the description of the geological structure and hydrogeological conditions of the area in question, there is an opinion about the formation of hydrogen sulfide in groundwater. However, this view differs from the classical theory of sulfate reduction. It is substantiated that the production of hydrogen sulfide in groundwater due to the action of sulfate bacteria takes place not only in the recovery environment, but also in the oxidation zone. The validity of this view is confirmed by the analysis of deep hydrogeological wells and field survey data. Existence of hydrogen sulfide mineral springs within Kakheti is related to carbonate flysch. Their formation, circulation, including natural solutions is entirely in the form of carbonate flysch and is probably the origin of the formation of hydrogen sulfide healing waters. In addition to the mineral springs of Kakheti, the wide prospects of practical use of these waters are discussed, which is related to the picturesque nature and excellent climatic conditions of the area, which provides a great opportunity for resort-medical construction in the Kakheti region.
