Note 63 — Chapter XXXII · MINERAL SPRINGS AND CHOICE OF SPA

“Weakly mineralised thermal muriated waters, such as those of Baden-Baden in Germany, and Bourbon-Lancy in France, which in character and action approach the simple thermal group, may also show great radio-activity. In fact, the Büttquelle of Baden-Baden in this respect rivals some of the most radio-active springs of Gastein. Of Bourbon-Lancy springs, according to A. Piatot, the least mineralised are the most radio-active.”—“Climato-therapy and Balneo-therapy,” by Sir Hermann Weber.
