Groundwater Supplies
Groundwater is a source of water supplies for mines, towns, irrigation, stock, industry and recreation. Rockwater specialises in locating and developing groundwater supplies, and in managing the resource. Up to date exploration, testing and evaluation techniques are utilised. Groundwater resources are assessed quantitatively using volume/through-flow calculations and numerical modelling.
