Izvor Termo Mineralne Vode

Bosnia and Herzegovina is extremely rich in potable, healing, mineral and thermal waters, but this resource, like many others, is neglected. Out of about 350 beds of these waters, 16 percent or 45 occurrences are used, but not the full extent, this is the result of our insolubility, ignorance and distrust.

All countries try to protect their production except for us.

For example, for the Thermal Riviera in Ilidza, which consists of a series of open and closed swimming pools, water is used from well IB2, which has 78 liters per second and 58 degrees Celsius. Only water is used up to 44 degrees, and unused goes to the Railway. They use up to 44 degrees, but then they go greenhouses, underfloor heating with heat pumps, and mushroom cultivation.

One of the reasons why we do not use such a wealth is mighty paperwork, projects that must be done beforehand. Research permission, project, monitoring, elaborate, protection, even the final mining project should be obtained. According to our law, when you receive mineral water with a well or spring, it is treated as a coal mine ... 😨
