resort of Kamie´ n Pomorski is supplied with water of the Na–Cl type, the mineralisation of which reaches the level of 34 g/dm
3 . In Kołobrzeg healing water from
boreholes of the Cl–Na, I type and Cl–Na, I, Fe type with mineralisation ranging
from 51 to 61 g/dm
3 is used for medicinal purposes [12, 19].
In the central part of the province, healing water is extracted in one of the most
prominent health resorts in Poland, Ciechocinek, as well as in Inowrocław and
Wieniec-Zdrój. In Ciechocinek thermal brines (28–32 °C) of the Na–Cl, I type with
the mineralisation of 43–54 g/dm
3 are used in therapies [20]. This health resort was
founded owing to the occurrence of brines, which were used in the production of
salt. Between 1824 and 1828 brine graduation towers and saltworks were built for
this purpose and they have been in operation ever since, manufacturing edible salt
as well as the Ciechocinek hydroxide and sludge. In the vicinity of Grudzi˛ adz and
Konstancin the brines of the Cl–Na, I, Fe type with the mineralisation between 75 and
79 g/dm
3 and the temperature reaching 40.5 °C and 29 °C respectively are exploited.
This province also belongs to one of the most important regions whose thermal
waters have properties and temperatures justifying their potential use for heating. The
Cretaceous and Jurassic aquifers are recognized as the most prospective in energy
production.
In Pyrzyce and Stargard, the brine of the Cl–Na, I type with the mineralisation
of 120–140 g/dm
3 and temperature between 61 and 84 °C is used. In Pozna´ n water
of the Cl–Na type with the mineralisation reaching 20.8 g/dm
3 and temperature of
41 °C at the outflow is used to supply a leisure centre “Malta Thermas” whereas in
Tarnowo Podgórne the brine with the mineralisation of 80 g/dm
3 and temperature of
44 °C is extracted from the depth of approximately 1.2 km for recreational purposes.
The reservoir of Late Cretaceous in the Mogilno and Łód´ z Trough also has
favourable temperature parameters. In Uniejów thermal waters of the Cl–Na type,
with the mineralization of approximately 7 g/dm
3 and the temperature reaching 67 °C
are used in balneotherapy, recreation as well as for heating purposes. In the nearby
village of Podd˛ ebice, water of such high temperature as 71 °C, and low mineralization
amounting to only 0.4 g/dm
3 was extracted from the depth of 2.1 km. In Mszczonów
water from the Late Cretaceous formations reaching the temperature of 40.5 °C, and
mineralisation of 0.5 g/dm
3 is exploited. Thermal brines have also been identified in
the area of Konin, where the water of the outflow temperature reaching 92 °C and
mineralisation at the level of 150 g/dm
3 has been obtained. Similarly, in Toru´ n, the
mineralization of the thermal brine reaches 120 g/dm
3 , and its temperature at the
outflow can amount to approximately 60 °C. Thermal water has also been extracted
in Kleszczów (Cl–Na type of the temperature reaching 52 °C), and thermal wells
have been identified in the vicinity of Wilga and Celejów (temp. 30 °C).
In the area of the Sudetes Province, there occur three major types of healing
waters: carbonated water, thermal water, and radon water. The most common type of
water in this province is carbonated water – mineralized bicarbonate water containing
carbon dioxide. Carbonated waters extracted in the region of Czerniawa-Zdrój and
´
Swieradów-Zdrój are springs and wells located at the depth of 360 m. Their mineralization reaches 3 g/dm
3 , and the content of carbon dioxide exceeds 2000 mg/dm
3 .
