Chemical Characterisation of the Spring Waters used for Health Care, Guber, Srebrenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Abstract

Four Guber spring waters (Mali Guber, Očna voda, Ljepotica and Sinus voda) were analyzed for 19 physico-chemical parameters. Very low pH and very high concentrations of iron and sulphate are found in all springs. High correlations were obtained between pH and content of sulphate and conductivity. The spring Očna voda displayed the most extreme values with the lowest pH (1.67) and the highest concentrations of iron and sulphate. First-time results are reported for the Sinus voda spring water.
