Abstract

Sinter-forming springs and geysers are among the rarest, the most vulnerable, the most spectacular and the most prized among the Waikato Region’s geothermal surface features. This report provides an inventory of sinter-forming springs and geysers in the Waikato Region, and provide notes on their location, activity, characteristics, and any threats that they face. It is hoped that this report will assist the preservation of these features by providing a guide to assist further monitoring.
