Abstract

In this research, the hydrogeochemical and geomorphological evidences of travertine deposition were investigated to detect the Garab Spring region as a unique travertine zone of northeastern Iran. Some of the hydrological and geochemical properties of the water and rocks were analyzed. According to the concentration of major components, the chemical property of the Garab Spring water was identified as Na–Cl and Ca–HCO₃–SO₄. Based on the geochemical results of XRF, the most important compositions of the rock samples were demonstrated as CaO, Fe₂O₃ and MgO with 59.24, 8.78 and 7.14 %, respectively. The petrography analysis indicated calcite mineralogy. Furthermore, the geomorphological shapes of the rocks were categorized into both robust travertine and fragile tufa.
