Evaluation of the current status of Mineral Waters in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia

Under the title of "Evaluation of the Current State of Mineral Waters in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia", it includes a series of works aimed at classifying and quantifying the collections and springs of mineral-medicinal, mining-industrial and bottled drink water in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, and which is carried out under the Framework Agreement for Technical Assistance signed between the Ministry of Economy and Finance of the Junta de Andalucía and the Geominero Technological Institute of Spain (ITGE) based on the Government Agreement of 24-07-1994 (BOJA No 77 of 17/08/1989). The works were carried out by the Empresa Nacional ADARO, S.A. and by Tecnología y Recursos de la Tierra (TRT).
The project was carried out in two phases. Phase I, during 1990-1991, was carried out the inventory of points of mineral water, medicinal miner and industrial miner in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, inventing a total of 308 points. Distributed as follows: Almería 33 points, Cádiz 31 points, Córdoba 22 points, Granada 85 points, Huelva 15 points, Jaén 49 points, Huelva 15 points, Málaga 55 points and Sevilla with 18 points.
Phase II, from 1991 to 1993, is proposed as the update of the Inventory of points of mineral-medicinal water and bottled drink in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, following the objectives that were raised for Phase I. In total 23 new points were inventoried, distributed as follows: Almería 1 point, Cádiz 2 points, Córdoba 5 points, Granada 3 points, Huelva 1 point, Jaén 1 point, Málaga 9 points and Seville with 1 points.
In the inventory, the basic information of each mineral water point is collected, such as the geographical situation, state of the point, administrative situation, historical background, exploitation and marketing, administrative protection, physico-chemical characteristics, level and flow measurements, and geological and hydrogeological characteristics. All this is incorporated into a database, and created a layer of geographical information of the points of mineral waters of Andalusia.
