| Summary: | The Serra Geral Aquifer is constituted by basalts and associated rocks, fracture type, and veryimportant (mainly exploited) as a plublic supply and alternatives uses like industry and irrigation in the State Paraná. Theaim of this research is defined the water types using the Piper diagram. Ground water samples were collected in 34 pointsand analyze for the major ions (calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, sulfate and nitrate among others) andtotal dissolveld solids. Alkalinity, temperature, pH and specific conductance were measured in the field. The major watertype was Ca-HCO3; types like: Na-CO3 and SO4 – HCO3 were associeted with the Botucatu Aquifer. The results of thisresearch show that the SGA is strategic for public water supply and can be used, in extreme conditions to irrigation. |
