Some clues regarding the water bearing properties of rocks are given as follows: (i) Permeability and non-porosity which is significant in water yielding of rocks. (ii) Beside weathering and texture, the presence of numerous sets of joints, fractures, cleavages and faults breccias form the good water bearing zones in igneous and metamorphic rocks. (iii) Solution opening in limestones and dolomites [...]
