HYDROGEOLOGIC MODEL



Hydrogeologic model of the area shows primary recharge for the Sistema Zacatón groundwater comes from the Sierra de Tamaulipas.  As the water passes through the Cretaceous limestone, it approaches the Pleistocene volcanic zone that likely continues to be a substantial source of thermodynamic energy to drive large-scale dissolution and mobilization of the calcium carbonate host rock.
