The name Champagne Pool is  derived from the constant efflux of carbon dioxide gas, similar to a  glass of bubbling champagne. The vibrant colors come from a rich  deposition of minerals and silicate. The silicate structures around the  edge of the pool is teeming with microbial life. The hot spring  was formed 900 years ago by a hydrothermal eruption, resulting in a  crater 65 m in diameter and 62 m deep. Colored waters percolate up from  underground full of carbon dioxide which forms bubbles near the surface  where the water temperature is 74°C. At the edges of the pools the  silica is lined with bright orange from antimony rich deposits that  solidify out of the cooler water. Mercury, thallium, gold and silver are  also deposited in the rocks. Excess water flow out of Champagne pool to feed another geothermal pool  called Artist's Palette, which is colored yellow because of sulphur  deposits. From there the water flows over silica mud flats to Primrose  Sinister Terrace and down Primrose Terrace forming beautiful and fragile  silica deposits. <img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-sICmSyZJ6p0/U9NCruI-hwI/AAAAAAAA0h4/KcDcofrVs18/champagne-pool-6%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-G5LyIB9buMY/U9NCuQzzIFI/AAAAAAAA0iA/XyqVGJbLk28/champagne-pool-3%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-6henT0cbutE/U9NCx3O2yVI/AAAAAAAA0iI/G5mP5fMNQ0I/champagne-pool-7%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-7l633Leu-D8/U9NC1Juaz-I/AAAAAAAA0iQ/Z8G6y5nXN3c/champagne-pool-1%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-U3_I0Xml8Ok/U9NC3l1IDWI/AAAAAAAA0iY/EvUKL1XPu6Y/champagne-pool-5%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-C5U-WsS5YKk/U9NC8KiDBaI/AAAAAAAA0ig/MC2bAO2S6ko/champagne-pool-8%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-pKo9a2cZKdQ/U9NC_j0BWFI/AAAAAAAA0io/8EYwOgUhruo/champagne-pool-9%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_WLfZTl-I7Q/U9NDC2evQ2I/AAAAAAAA0iw/j76KbdrmTkI/champagne-pool-10%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-QXII6tXYKN8/U9NDFI8HwFI/AAAAAAAA0i4/D4lHNVjr_sA/champagne-pool-11%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-UDEuPEXOyWg/U9NDIBnFtjI/AAAAAAAA0jA/yxQv9ez7gk0/champagne-pool-4%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> </blockquote>
