The initial and final waters used in these simulations were selected from among the analyses listed in Table 7. Although a number of simulations were made for various different flowpaths deemed likely on the basis of the hydrogeological model, the presentation here is restricted solely to investigations of the evolution of the mature pumped waters at Whittle Drift Borehole (Fig. 6) from a range of possible precursor waters. The mature Whittle Drift pumped water is of Ca- Na SC)4 facies, with a pH around 7.5 and <45 mg/L dissolved Fe. The possible precursor waters were identified as follows ...
