Lithium isotopic composition of the carbonate type salt lake in Tibet and its implication for origin and hydrological processes by Jiangdi Zhou, Maoyong He, Binkai Li, Jiangang Jiao, Zhongli Tang, Zhengyan Li, Huihui Rao

“…The hydrochemistry indicated that the recharge water is influenced by rock weathering, but the lake brine is influenced by evaporation concentration. The analysis of trace elements and Li isotopic data reveals that rock weathering, geothermal systems, salt minerals, and freshwater, primarily from early geothermal activities and the redissolution of carbonate minerals, contribute to the Li in salt lake brine. …”
