Description

Ground water prospects

SV

Structural valley

Basalts

Associated with Fractures/ Lineaments

The valley portions of basalts weathered to a considerable depth and associated with fractures/ lineaments.

Moderate to good. Good yields are expected along Fractures/Lineaments.

MDP

Moderately dissected plateau

Basalts

-do-

Shallow valleys/Gullies with gentle sloping land developed due to stream erosion on plateau.

Poor to moderate.

MLP

Moderately thick lateritic plateau

Laterites as capping over basalts

-do-

Elevated flat land with moderately thick lateritic

Plateau.

Moderate. Ground water occurs mainly in the weathered and fractured zones of basalts.
