In the area of Ivrindi, the Çaldağ limestones in Permian age form the basement which is overlain by metamorphic rocks of Lower Triassic age in which there are intercalations of marbles. The Kinik formation of Lower Triassic age overlies metamorphic rocks, consist of conglomerates, sandstones, siltstones, limestones and volcanic rocks. Yürekli formation in Upper Miocene to Pliocene age overlies the last rock sequence and consists of dacitic to rhyodacitic volcanics. Soma formation in the same age age consists of sedimentary rocks with intercalations of further sedimentary rocks. Geothermal waters in the area of Ivrindi display Na-Ca-HCO 3 type. In comparison, groundwaters in the area can be classified as Ca-Mg-HCO 3 type. Geothermal waters show cation abundances of Na+K>Ca>Mg and anion abundances of SO 4 >HCO 3 >Cl in the area of Ivrindi. In the Plot of Na1/100-K1/100-√Mg1/2, geothermal waters in the area represent immature waters.
