The origin of Arima Onsen was a stratum containing ancient seawater called serpentine.
This layer of rock is carried to the upper mantle by the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate, where it is dehydrated and springs up from an incredible 60 kilometers underground, making it a rare hot spring directly connected to the plate.
The hot springs of Arima Onsen are known to have the highest salt content in Japan.
The original serpentine rock is said to be a stratum from six million years ago, and contains ancient seawater from when humans first stood on two legs, and the salt concentration of Arima Onsen is the same. It is truly a hot spring that transcends time.
