摘要:Banat is a geographic area which in cludes the northeast part of Yugoslavia, the west part of Romania and the south part of Hungary. The Yugoslav Banat, which is interesting for our research,includes the east part of the Vojvodina prov?ince,bounded by the rivers Danube and Tisa and the Hungarian and Romanian borders. It covers the space of 9,296 sq km,which is 43.2% of the total territory of Vojvodina. Banat is an interesting part of the Pannonian Basin because it offers the possibilities of intensive exploitation of geothermal springs of this area. The springs represent a part of the unique hy?dro-geothermal system. The paper gives the analyses of the main features of min?eral and thermal water in the Yugoslav Banat. It also establishes the localities which have the greatest resources and shows the degree of the water exploitation for the purposes of the spa and recreation?al tourism. The paper also presents the ideas for improving the financial back?ground of the localities where the water is most intensively used. Apart from tourist reasons for the water exploitation, there are several other possibilities for its usage:in agriculture and aqua-culture, for room heating,as technological water, etc.
