    This article presents results of hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical research conducted at south hills, Ivanščica Mountain, situated in the northwestern part of the Republic of Croatia. Research was carried out in the summer 2013, between July and September. Hydrogeological mapping was undertaken on approximately 20 km 2 (at a scale of 1:25000), with water samples taken from 10 springs. Rocks and deposits were classified into three hydrogeological units with respect to permeability. Two main aquifers were identified - the Triassic carbonate aquifer and the Badenian carbonate aquifer. The overall capacity of 41 registered springs (permanent and periodic) was estimated. According to their basic chemical composition, water from springs belong to Ca-HCO 3 (calcium-hydrogen carbonate), CaMg-HCO 3 (calcium magnesium-hydrogen carbonate) and to MgCa-HCO 3 (magnesium calcium-hydrogen carbonate) types.
