It is generally agreed that most of the chloride in basinal brines has been derived from some combination of the subsurface dissolution of evaporites (e.g., Kharaka et al., 1985 Land, 1997) and the entrapment and/or infiltration of evaporated seawater (e.g.. Carpenter, 1978 Kharaka et al., 1987 Moldovanyi and Walter, 1992). Dissolution of halite produces waters dominated by sodium chloride. Evaporation of seawater produces waters having the general trends shown for ion-Br (Figure 5), Na-Cl (Figure 3) and Ca-Cl (Figure 4), but most formation waters have neither the cation (nor anion) composition of an...
