The Techirghiol Lake, with a total surface of 1,462 ha, a length of 7,500 m and a maximum depth of 12 m, is situated on the NW Black Sea coast, south to the Constanta town. The lake is located in SE Dobrogea, a region that displays the highest density of lakes in Romania. These lakes were formed during the Quaternary, in relation with the Black Sea level fluctuations. Due to the low-level waters of the Lake Techirghiol, relative to the Black Sea one, the salty marine waters periodically invaded the lake.
Genetically, the Techirghiol Lake formed as a fluvial - marine lagoon; it is situated in a widened valley, formed by karstic and abrasion processes. Most of the sediments cropping out in the area of the Techirghiol Lake are Middle Miocene in age, mainly composed of coquinas, limestones with oolites in place, marls and clays. These deposits are covered by reddish-brownish clays and loess. The semi-arid climatic conditions have favored the accumulation of minerals able to generate the mud showing the curative properties. |
