Their atmosphere contains water vapor up to 8-10% of the total volume, a slightly increased amount of heavy water, 3-5% carbon dioxide, nitrogen up to 78.8%, radium emanation within 0.728 nCi/l. Organic substances, a certain amount of fatty and naphthenic acids, active trace elements (aluminum, magnesium, silicon, iron, barium, strontium, calcium, chromium, etc.) were found in the vapor condensate.
