| Abstract: | Uranium contents and234U/238U ratios have been determined on 29 water samples from the Taiyuan area, Shanxi Province. The results show that the same artesian
aquifer has similar uranium contents and234U/238U activity ratios, and the deeper aquifers have higher A. R. values but lower uranium contents. The A. R. values increase
slightly towards groundwater flow in the artesian aquifers dominated by oxidizing ground waters.
The Lancun Spring and the famous Jinci Spring belong to two different karst groundwater systems, i.e., the east and west karst
groundwater systems. The recharge area of the Lancun Spring should cover the wide limestone outcrops of middle Ordovician
in the northeast. The Ordovician fissure-karst ground water to the Jinci Spring is extensively mixed with fissure water in
Carboniferous-Jurassic formations and seepage water from the Fenhe River. |
