SILICEOUS WATERS. 



Siliceous waters predominate in the springs of the Yellowstone ]!!^a- 

 tional Park, and we regret that more analyses cannot be presented 

 here. Those given are with one exception from the Gibbon Geyser 

 Basin, the most recently discovered of all the geysers basin of the 

 Park. 



FIRE HOLE GEYSER BASINS. 



Ko specimens of water were obtained from the Upper Fire Hole 

 Basin. In 1871 a small quantity of water was obtained from the Grand 

 Geyser, and gave a result of 835ff milligrams of solid matter to the

* This analysis is mentioned on. page 187 of report for 1871, but not credited to tlie 

 Grand Geyser, as it should be.
