CONT

Il y a quelques années, on croyait communément que les vapeurs magmatiques étaient responsables de l'alimentation à la fois de la source de chaleur et d'une large fraction de l'eau ou de la vapeur contenue dans l'aquifère; mais les mesures isotopiques ont finalement démontré que cette théorie est fausse.
