This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geysers of the Yellowstone National Park First. That geysers occur only in volcanic regions and in acid volcanic rocks. In Iceland and New Zealand the volcanic fires are still active. Second. Geysers occur only along lines of drainage, on shores of lakes or other situations where meteoric waters would naturally seek the surface. Third. Geyser waters are meteoric waters which have not penetrated to great depths, but have been heated by ascending vapors. Fourth. The supply of heat is derived from great masses of lava slowly cooling from a state of former incandescence, heating waters, which, descending to the hot rocks, ascend as highly heated vapors.
