There are literally thousands of geysers in YNP. The most well known is "Old Faithful." None of these geysers are "pure water." They are all fuelled by sulfur, and thus the high sulfur content in the water. Most all of the rivers in the area are tainted by sulfur also.

Old Faithfull
Old Faithful may be the world's most famous geyser. Members of the 1870 Washburn Expedition first noticed the geyser's regular eruptions, and gave it the name it bears today. Oddly enough, Old Faithful is neither Yellowstone's biggest geyser (Steamboat Geyser is) nor its most predictable, but it has name-brand recognition, and people like watching it so much that more than 85% of Yellowstone visitors stop by to see it go off
