Consistence is a standard English word, but a relatively uncommon one, compared
to consistency. It would be good to tag any hot springs that are caustic enough
that you wouldn't want skin contact, whether due to acidity or alkalinity.

seems I am am bit archaic with my English. Content, composition,
characteristics.
Not required to be a detailed chemical analysis, a practical description like
mud, saltwater, freshwater, sulfuric water, mineral water. Possibly multivalued
with a list of the main minerals where notable.
Meanwhile I thought the same tag should be good to characterise the water
quality of
the oceans, the Dead sea, the Azov sea (if it still exists) and freshwater...
would
be a pitty not to have this.
So perhaps "water_characteristics" ?
