Rock Spray

Rock Spray" is a term often used in geology to describe a geological feature where water emerges forcefully from fractures or joints in a rock formation. This phenomenon occurs when groundwater under pressure finds a path through the rock and is ejected forcefully, resembling a spray or jet. These features are typically found in areas with fractured or porous rock formations, such as karst landscapes or volcanic regions. Rock sprays can vary in size and intensity, ranging from small seeps to powerful jets that can reach significant heights. They play a role in hydrogeology and can sometimes be harnessed as natural water sources or studied to understand groundwater flow patterns.
