EEPOET UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SUEVEY, 



There are too few analyses to allow us to x^redicate mucli definitely, 

 but, from this table, it would appear that our geysers are more like the 

 New Zealand geysers than they are like the Iceland geysers in the com- 

 position of the water, especially as regards the proportion of silica, and 

 as to sodium chloride they appear to be intermediate. 



Table showing comparison of proportions of silica and total solid contents of thermal waters .
