Borehole Siting in Zimbabwe and Detecting Where To Drill Your Borehole!

Before borehole drilling can begin Blue Water Systems Zimbabwe will need to know a little about the geology of the area. 

This will give us an idea of the type of ground we will be drilling through, how deep the water table is and how deep we may have to drill down to. Once we have checked the geology and hydrology of the area Blue Water Systems Zimbabwe will make a no-obligation visit to your site to site, divine or dowse to find the best location to drill a borehole.

In addition to predicting the position where water may be successfully found a good site can also indicate its portability, depth, volume, pressure and the sort of geological strata that will have to be drilled through to reach the source. Whilst most people have some idea of water lying underground as a water table, diviners and dowsers are also able to pinpoint water lying in underground streams or aquifers when adjacent drilling would only be into dry rock.

The diviner will use a V Rod, traditionally made from a forked twig of hazel, apple and willow, but can be made up from any springy material such as wood, cane, plastic or metal. The diviner will take a few things into account when finding the best location on your site.
