Case study of mountainous geothermal reservoirs (Kopaonik Mt., southwestern Serbia): Fault-controlled fluid compartmentalization within a late Paleogene-Neogene core-complex

Water–Rock Interactions across Volcanic Aquifers of the Lece Andesite Complex (Southern Serbia): Geochemistry and Environmental Impact

“…The enrichment factor (EF) has been used in several studies as an assessment of the anthropogenic influence on the level of contamination of sediments and soils by toxic elements [81] or enrichment of groundwater with toxic elements [55,82,83]. The elements used for normalization ("denominator") in these studies are different (such as Co, Li, Al, Fe, and Sc).…”

“…Thus, these waters (except Ploc water, which is cold water) can be used for heating, heat pumps, local agriculture (greenhouses), industrial processes, etc. Additionally, thermal waters containing higher concentrations of SiO 2 (above 50 mgL −1 ), Sr (above 10 mgL −1 ), B (above 5 mgL −1 ), and F − (more than 2 mgL −1 ) along with Fe and Rn can be useful for medical purposes [87,88]. The latter elements are present in the higher-temperature waters in the areas of Sijarinska Banja (Siji, Sijb), Kuršumlijska Banja (Kurs), Tulare (Tul1, Tul2), and Viča (Vici, Vicb).…”

“…The latter elements are present in the higher-temperature waters in the areas of Sijarinska Banja (Siji, Sijb), Kuršumlijska Banja (Kurs), Tulare (Tul1, Tul2), and Viča (Vici, Vicb). These waters have mostly been used for balneotherapy and recreational purposes [87,88]. Prolom Banja Spa (Prol) water is used as bottled mineral water (because of its higher pH value and lower mineralization).…”

Fine Modeling of Multiscale Fracture Cavity Fusion in Fault Solution Reservoirs Based on Multiscale Discrete Crack Modeling Method

“…Hui et al established an unconventional crack model and analyzed the propagation behavior of cracks. Marinković et al conducted a composite hydrogeothermal investigation of the post-Neotethys Late Paleogene Neogene crustal core complex in the Kopaonik Mountains of the southwestern Serbian Plateau. The fractured carbonate reservoirs in Tahe Oilfield are different from conventional porous sandstone reservoirs and other karst carbonate reservoirs. − The main storage space of oil reservoirs is mainly composed of cracks and caves formed by structural deformation and collapse, as well as pores and caves formed by karst processes. − The large karst caves are the most important storage space, and cracks are the main connecting channels. − Due to the different types of karst caves and cracks of different scales, their morphology and scale are different, making it difficult to establish a unified geological model using a single method. − Therefore, different modeling methods are used to establish discrete models for different constituent elements. − Then, the discrete models were integrated into a wpore, establishing a three-dimensional distribution model of the fractured and vuggy reservoir. − …”
