Unveiling the Hidden Water Cycles of Earth
Let’s look at the hidden water cycles of Earth. Water is vital for life, yet its presence and movement beneath the Earth’s surface remain one of the great mysteries of science. Recent discoveries have significantly expanded our understanding of the deep hydrogeological systems, from the mantle’s water-rich minerals to the sustainable reservoirs of Deep Seated…
Read MoreUncovering Hidden Depths: The Quest to Locate Deep Seated Water
In our exploration of Earth’s hidden treasures, Deep Seated Water reservoirs stand out as one of the most fascinating and crucial discoveries. These underground aquifers, often lying kilometres beneath the surface, hold vast amounts of water that can be vital for sustaining life, particularly in arid regions (Evidence of New Sources of Fresh Groundwater). In…
Read MoreUnveiling Earth’s Subsurface Secrets: Exploring the Depths of Deep Seated Water
In our initial exploration of the enigmatic world beneath our feet, we delved into the significance of Deep Seated Water and the challenges tied to its extraction. Now, let’s broaden our perspective to encompass the fascinating realms of deep aquifers, uncovering recent technological breakthroughs, scientific discoveries, and the remarkable potential held within these subterranean reservoirs.…
Read MoreUnveiling the Mysteries of Deep-Seated Water: AquaterreX’s Journey into Earth’s Hidden Reservoirs
Water, the lifeblood of our planet, has long been a subject of fascination and exploration. While we’re accustomed to the sight of rivers, lakes, and oceans on the Earth’s surface, there’s a hidden realm beneath our feet that holds vast reservoirs of water known as “deep seated water.” In this blog post, we’ll embark on…
Read MoreWhat Does A Gushing Deep Seated Water Well Look Like?
Just watch and wait for it to see a gushing Deep Seated Water well! When drawing water from deep underground, on rare occasions it can reach the surface under pressure with results that can be quite spectacular. “Gusher” wells can occur when the drilling equipment reaches an entry point to a deeper aquifer through a…
Read MoreHas Deep Seated Water from the Tonga Volcanic Eruption Caused Australia’s Flooding?
In January of this year, a volcano erupted in Tonga in the Pacific Ocean with a force as powerful as the eruption of Krakatoa in 1886. It also set the altitude record for producing a plume of smoke that reached 35 miles (58 kilometers) into the stratosphere. However, that plume of “smoke” was comprised mostly…
Read MoreDeep Seated Water Aquifer Providing Billions of Gallons of Fresh Water to Chicago
As much of the planet struggles with drought, a Deep Seated Water aquifer has been providing Chicago and parts of Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, and Indiana with hundreds of billions of gallons of fresh water. The “Deep Sandstone Aquifer” (technically known as the Cambrian-Ordovician Sandstone Aquifer System) has been supplying increasing amounts of fresh water for…
Read MoreStop Drilling Dry Holes for Water Wells
End the Costly Search for Water Finding fresh groundwater for water wells, especially in arid regions, can be expensive and challenging. The success rate of drilling a useful well averages between 30-40% in areas where water is scarce. This means that drilling a “dry hole” is more likely than finding the water a farmer or…
Read MoreHuge New Deep Seated Water Aquifer Discovered in Texas
More Evidence of Fresh Deep Seated Water Last fall while exploring for oil and gas deposits in southwest Texas, a driller instead found a huge freshwater deep aquifer. Now called the Maverick Basin Aquifer, it is known to be at least 3,000 square miles in area and averages 1,000 feet thick in most places. This…
Read MoreSolving The Water Crisis – Let Our Shallow Aquifers Recharge
Why be concerned with recharging our shallow aquifers? Well, alarming headlines about drought and the global freshwater crisis are splashed across the media from Sacramento to Cape Town and Dubai. Just as alarming are the draconian “solutions” being mandated to reduce water usage or prevent economic growth. Let Our Shallow Aquifers Recharge There is one…
