Hydrofracturing - A new approach to revitalize bore-wells

Hydro-fracturing is a new approach to revitalise bore wells to improve its yield, by injecting water at high pressure in the failed bore wells to break up fissures, clean away mud and other impurities, thus bringing it in contact with adjacent water bearing bodies, and thereby yield water. This method can be applied in situations, where even after scientific location of bore well points in hard rock areas, some bore wells yield poor discharge or fail to yield water totally, and thus save on the cost of drilling a new bore well.
