Well Drillers Near Cassopolis, Michigan

A geological estimate for the Cassopolis area.

Detailed Summary

A review of well logs from the Cassopolis area reveals a consistent geological profile: thin surficial topsoil, underlain by interleaved sand/sand & gravel and clay layers. The most common sequence begins with 1-3 ft topsoil, followed by sand or sand & gravel (20-40 ft), a substantial clay or clay-mixed layer (10-25 ft), then another thick sand or sand & gravel unit (20-40 ft). Deeper layers (<120 ft) tend to be fine to medium sands or additional clay with some gravel. Static water levels are generally encountered between 10-44 ft below ground. Wells yielding 5-15+ GPM commonly draw from sand & gravel aquifers between 60-120 ft depth. The rotary mud circulation method is most frequently used.
