1. Estimate thicknesses and depths
of different formations
2. study of ground water quality which helps to understand
the sea water intrusiion / contamination in coastal aquifers
and-delineate areas polluted by Industrial effluents
3. Delineate geological structures like faults, dykes, etc.
4. Estimate depth to Archaean basement
In
hard rock areas
1. Delineate lateral and vertical
extents of weathered zones with their degree of weathering
2. Delineate structurally disturbed areas, viz. faulted,
sheared, sfactured rocks, etc.
3. Study the quality of ground water
4. Estimate the depth to bed rock
Borehole logging
Objectives
1. Locating Formation boundaries
2. Identifying aquifer zones for recommending Well Assembly
3. Estimate quality of ground water
4. Correlation of Formations encountered in different boreholes
5. Locate fractured zones in hard rocks
