One gallon contains 88.1 grains of solid matter (1.51
gram per liter) composed of calcium carbonate, mag-
nesium sulphate, and sodium chloride, with traces of iron,

One gallon contains 55.8 grains of mineral matter (.957
gram per liter) composed mainly of sodium sulphate with
considerable amounts of iron and aluminium sulphate, some
calcium sulphate and traces of calcium and magnesium car-
bonates, potassium sulphate, lithium sulphate, sodium chlo-
ride, zinc and silica.
The water has a strongly acid reaction and would be
classed as an acid sulphated chalybeate water.
