Where does underground water come from?
Answer: Precipitation that soaks in the ground and trickles downward.
Water underground trickles down between particles of sol and through cracks and spaces in layers of rock.

Pores - different types of rock and soil have different-sized spaces.
Permeable - materials that allow water to easily pass through or permeate.
Examples of permeable materials are sand and gravel.

Impermeable - materials that water cannot pass through easily.
Examples of impermeable materials are clay and granite.
Saturated zone - the area of permeable rock or soil tat is totally filled or saturated with water.

The water in aquifer moves only a few centimeters a day which equals out to be about 10 meters a year. The movement depends largely on how steeply the aquifer slopes and how permeable the rocks are.

Lowered and raised a bucket to brink up water.
Today, most are dug with well-drilling equipment.

Pumping water out of an aquifer lowers the water level near the well. If too much water is pumped out too fast, the well may run dry.
Then it may be necessary to dig deeper to reach the lowered water table or to wait for rainfall to refill the aquifer.
