Detailed Summary

Hydrogeological profiles from multiple Newcastle area well logs show a representative sequence of surficial soils or red clays, grading into sand or gravel, then hard limestones or cemented sandstone. Deeper sections (in higher capacity/older wells) show alternating beds of sandstone (sometimes water-bearing), limestone, and occasional shale. Red/brown and purple hues in soils and bedrock are frequent. Residential wells typically target 100-130 ft for reliable 5-15+ GPM yields (mainly where fractured/cemented sandstones or limestones occur); higher capacity wells (>20 GPM) or community wells often go deeper (300-400+ ft), exploiting larger or more transmissive formations.
