Almost all of the 1,000 springs found on the territory of Beregivu Oblast are flint thermal springs. More than 50 wells operate here and four large sources of thermal waters have been developed: Berehivske, Kosonske, Ivanovske and Borzhavske. The most famous of them is Kosonske.

Water reaches the surface with a temperature of about 55°C, cools to 41°C and is fed into the pools.
