Before Drilling a Borehole in Zimbabwe, it is important to do a Hydrogeological Survey. Hydrogeological survey helps determine the sub-surface’s nature, and the best location for drilling.
Apart from Hydrogeological Survey, Water Dowsing is also used to find water. Water Dowsing is an ancient method of finding underground water. Also known as drowsing or divining

What is Hydrogeological Survey?
Hydrogeological surveys are used to understand the subsurface conditions and groundwater resources. This type of survey uses various techniques, including the resistivity method, Vertical Electronic Sounding (VES), and Horizontal Electrical Profiling (HEP). |

A good Borehole Drilling Company uses this survey to conduct in-depth groundwater feasibility studies, which are used to determine the best location for a new borehole.
The data collected from these surveys is used to create a model of the subsurface conditions, that identifies potential groundwater resources.
Advantages of Hydrogeological Survey
There are many benefits to using a hydrogeological survey, including:
- Accuracy: As long as you work with a professional borehole drilling company, a hydrogeological survey will give you a very accurate picture of the subsurface conditions.
- Non-invasive: This type of survey is entirely non-invasive, meaning that it won’t disrupt the natural environment or disturb any wildlife.
- Time-saving: A hydrogeological survey can be completed relatively quickly, depending on the size of the area being surveyed.
Disadvantages of Hydrogeological Survey:
- Expensive: Hydrogeological surveys can be quite expensive, depending on the techniques used and the size of the surveyed area.
- Require specialized equipment: This type of survey requires specialized equipment, which can be difficult to find if you don’t work with a professional borehole drilling company.
What is Water Witching? (Divining or Dowsing)
Water Dowsing, also known as dowsing, is a type of divination used to find water underground. It’s said that Water Dowsers can find water by using a forked stick, rod, or pendulum.Some people believe that Water Dowsing is a supernatural ability, while others believe it’s a natural form of divination. There’s no scientific evidence to support the claim that Water Dowsing is an accurate way to find water, but some people swear by it.
How Does Water Dowsing Work?
This method has been used in Zimbabwe for generations to find water. This is how it works:- A person or group of people walks around the area where they want to find water.
- The person who is “Dowsing” for water holds a forked stick, rod, or pendulum in their hands.
- When they feel a tug or pull, they mark the spot with a flag or stone.
- Once they have marked all of the spots where they feel a tug or pull, they drill a borehole in one of those spots.
So, Which Method Should You Use?
If you are looking for an accurate and reliable way to find water, we recommend using a hydrogeological survey. Hydrogeological surveys are conducted by professionals who use specialized equipment to get a detailed picture of the subsurface conditions. This type of survey is relatively quick and can be completed within a few days. |
