Figure 7-1. Typical Stiff diagrams for basement wells. The main ionic components that differentiate this water type from others are: Cl-1, ranging from 900 to 1000 mequiv/l, Na+1, ranging from 300 to 400 mequiv/l, and Ca+2, averaging 600 mequiv/l. Particularly, Ca+2 value for C313 well exceeded 1700 mequiv/l.
