The statement regarding the difference between geysers and hot springs is correct. Geysers emit a jet of water with an explosion, while hot springs have water rising to the surface without an explosion.

The statement that geysers contain dissolved minerals with medicinal value while they are not found in hot springs is not correct. Both geysers and hot springs can contain dissolved minerals, and the presence of minerals with medicinal value is not exclusive to geysers.
