We have investigated the chemical and isotopic composition of recently formed gases emitted by three fumaroles on the Mt. Mihara summit peak of the Izu-Oshima volcano in order to assess the formation process of these gases. The CO2/H2O ratio of these gases varied greatly, with the δD and δ18O of the H2O being as low as a vapor phase equilibrated with the local meteoric water. These features are explained by a mixing of the vapor equilibrated with local meteoric groundwater and primary steam, which is a vapor phase generated by the mixing of magmatic gas and a cold meteoric groundwater. We concluded that there was no direct mixing between the magmatic vapor and a vapor phase of meteoric origin in the processes involved in fumarolic gas formation.
