(a) Landform of the Guide Basin and (b) the geological map of the Zhacang geothermal field and sampling locations. A total of 6 water samples were collected with the numbers of ZR1, G1, G2, G3, G4, and G5. The solid red lines on (b) correspond to the faults, and the W-E trending fault of F2 is conductive and the N-S trending fault of F5 is impermeable. Hot springs discharge at the junction of F2 and F5.
