Abstract

PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF THE POSSIBILITIES OF DRINKING WATER EXTRACTION IN THE AREA OF ZIELONKI, KRAKÓW REGIONAbstract. Devonian carbonates in the Kraków–Silesian region are known as a relatively productive aquifer containing good quality water for drinking purposes. The lack of water resources in the Kraków metropolitan agglomeration is the reason for the beginning of reconnaissance study of the Devonian aquifer groundwater resources. The paper presents some details related to the hydrogeological research of the Devonian carbonate aquifer in the Trojanowice-2 borehole. Despite the occurrence of artesian conditions with 1.5 atm. overpressure above datum level and about 150–250mof the aquifer thickness, the transmissivities of the Devonian carbonates are relatively low and range from 2.30×10-4 to 2.20×10-3 m2/s. As a consequence, the possible resources of the Devonian aquifer are also relatively low and potentially sufficient only for small, local communities.
