Of or pertaining to hot water; -- used esp. with reference to the action of heated waters in dissolving, redepositing, and otherwise producing mineral changes within the crust of the globe.
of, pertaining to, or using the hot waters or steam found at special locations within the earth's crust; as, hydrothermal power generation.
Pertaining to hot water, the actions of hot water or the products produced by the actions of hot water.
Pertains to heated or hot aqueous-rich solutions, to the processes in which they are concerned, and to the rocks, ore deposits, and alteration products produced by them. Hydrothermal solutions are of diverse sources, including magmatic, meteoric, and connate waters.
Hydro" means Water and "Thermal" means Heat. Hydrothermal solutions are solutions of hot water arising from underground sources. They may be as cool as cold water or hot as burning hot steam.
formed by precipitation from hot aqueous solutions.
process involving super heated magmatic waters
(4) heated aqueous-rich solutions, and the processes (hydrothermal alteration) in which they are involved.
"Hydro" for water and "thermal" for heat. Hydrothermal systems on Earth support life today. A hydrothermal deposit could contain signs of ancient microbial life.
Pertains to water heated by magma or in association with magma.
Refers to a process that involves the alteration or deposition of minerals by water water heated by igneous activity.
pertaining to the action of hot aqueous solutions or gases within or on the surface of the earth.
A mineral deposit where the economically important minerals have precipitated from a hydrothermal (hot water) solution.
An adjective applied to heated or hot-water-rich solutions.
pertaining to heated water which transports minerals in solution
Produced by extremely hot water. Hydrothermal fluids, typically 100 to 300 degrees celsius, are the last watery remnants of molten rock that solidified deep in the Earth's crust. John Comer, Indiana Geological Survey.
having to do with hot water; especially having to do with the action of hot water in dissolving, shifting, and otherwise changing the distribution of minerals in the earth's crust
Relating to hot fluids circulating in the Earth's crust.
Hydrothermal refers to hot water and steam rich in dissolved minerals which may pass through cracks and fissures in the rock and leave behind 'hydrothermal' veins of deposited minerals.
Pertaining to hot aqueous solutions, usually of magmatic origin, which may transport metals and minerals in solution.
Of or pertaining to hot water, to the action of hot water, or to the products of this action, such as a mineral deposit precipitated from a hot aqueous solution, with or without demonstrable association with igneous processes; also said of the solution itself.
hydro means water and thermal means heat. Literally hydrothermal means hot water. Steam and hot water reservoirs are hydrothermal reservoirs. Hot dry rock resources and magma resources are not considered to be hydrothermal resources.
of or pertaining to heated water, to its actions or to products related to its actions. In volcanology, the term has been restricted to heated water of magmatic origin.
Processes associated with heated or superheated water, especially mineralization or alteration.
having to do with extremely hot water
refers in the broad sense to the processes associated with alteration and mineralisation by a hot mineralizing fluid (water);
of or having to do with heated water, especially with the action of heated water in dissolving and redopositing minerals. [AHDOS
Underground systems of hot water and/or steam.
The name given to geological processes associated with heated or superheated water
