Assessing the suitability of lithium-related geothermometers for estimating the temperature of felsic rock reservoirs (original) (raw)

Geothermics, 2021

Abstract

Abstract Lithium-related geothermometers are relatively rarely used because they are based on empirical relations derived from poorly known water-mineral equilibrium reactions and do not always give valid estimations. In this study, we evaluated the applicability of Na-Li and Li-Mg geothermometers based on hydrochemical data for geothermal waters from nine geothermal systems in felsic reservoirs in China. The results indicate that the Na-Li geothermometer provided by Michard (1990), which is similar to those given by Fouillac and Michard (1981) and Verma and Santoyo (1997) with Cl
