Abstract

Czech Republic is a country of many mineral and thermal springs. Studies of mineral waters including chemical and radiochemical analyses have been conducted in Czechoslovakia for a long time.

An offer of available radiochemical analytical methods is presented in this paper. Survey of historical data and of analyses of other institutes is listed for comparison. The parallels with some foreign mineral sources are mentioned.
