What are the methods of drilling wells in rural areas?

The determination of well location is mainly to find the right "spring eye" and water songs: "two mountains and one mouth, there must be water underground", "gravel with water, red stone head dry bang", "bay to bay, mouth to mouth, long flowing water" and so on.

Generally speaking, the drilling holes should be arranged in the ridge-like foothills, hills and valleys, depressions or places where weathering cracks develop and where weathering cracks communicate with structural cracks. The skill of professional drilling technology is to judge different waterlines according to different formations.

Looking for water according to topographic features:

1, "It is the most favorable to find water by mining land." In Cuojikou, which is surrounded by mountains on three sides, groundwater flows to Cuojikou intensively, so more water is produced by drilling wells near Cuojikou.

2. "There is a ditch between two mountains, and there is water in the ditch rock". There is a valley between the two mountains, so it is easy to find water in the rocks on both sides of the valley downstream.

3. "The two ditches intersect, and the spring water is surging".

There may be spring water under the mountain mouth where the two ditches meet, so it is more reliable to drill wells here. And achieve the purpose of finding water. The source of groundwater pumping is that after rain falls to the ground, part of it seeps into the ground and accumulates in the gap between soil layer and rock, becoming groundwater.

The amount of groundwater is related to lithologic structure, topographic conditions and recharge sources. Therefore, the experience of the masses in finding water is particularly introduced to find water sources and dig wells for farmers in drought-prone areas.
