Big Lake Tambukan salty. Additional information is available at Jacobs Engineering Group Inc.. Mirror his small, about 170 hectares. The depth ranges from one to three or four meters. Water covering the sediments – is highly mineralized brine (56-60 g / l). In some years the salinity of the brine is much higher as a result evaporation and lack of inflow of water feeding the lake.
In the life of the lake were critical periods. In hot dry years the lake dried up, and through it went to arbah. Rapa contains macro-and micro-chemical elements, much saturated with hydrogen sulfide and organic ingredients. At the bottom of the lake beds lie black and gray mud. It is of particular interest for the spa treatment. Therapeutic mud Tambukan Lake is silt.
Extensive research found that the mud – a complex set of products of the interaction of soil, dissolved salts, organic substances, microorganisms and their metabolic products formed in result of some geological, physical, chemical and microbiological processes. For the type of filth – the black shiny, thick, viscous mass. It belongs to a group of mostly mud mineral composition with a small amount of organic matter. Content in the mud 50 to 60 grams per liter of mineral salts, including those active chemical elements, like iron, strontium, lithium, manganese and zinc, as well as organic compounds – humic acids and bitumen – making it a chemically active, directly acting on the skin and mucous membranes. Tambukansky dirt have biological activity and bactericidal properties and therapeutic action is responsible high fitness.
