Hot springs of Mongolia

A comprehensive investigation of the geothermal resources and their possible uses (for heating, power etc.) has, up to now, not been carried out in Mongolia. During the last two decades, some general studies have though been done on the geothermal regime in East Siberia and Mongolia, including the southern Siberian platform, Baikal rift zone, trans Baikal fold area, and Mongolia, four regions differing in their geology and tectonics.
