The Relationship Between Groundwater in the Nováky Coal Deposit and the Thermal Waters from the Bojnice High Block (Slovakia)

Slovakia is very poor in coal reserves but it is extremely rich in mineral and thermal water resources. The Nováky coal deposit is situated near the Bojnice spa, which is among the oldest and most important spas in Slovakia. Due to their proximity, there is a risk that coal mining could adversely af...

description Slovakia is very poor in coal reserves but it is extremely rich in mineral and thermal water resources. The Nováky coal deposit is situated near the Bojnice spa, which is among the oldest and most important spas in Slovakia. Due to their proximity, there is a risk that coal mining could adversely affect the Bojnice thermal water resources. We evaluated the results from several surveys as well as groundwater monitoring (inflows to the mining area, overflows from surface wells, and groundwater levels relative to the aquifer systems) and groundwater chemical processes near the Nováky coal deposit and explained the relationship between the groundwater in the Nováky coal deposit and tectonically uplifted Bojnice High Block. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10230-022-00848-9.
