Groundwater Sampling Errors: The Missing Link in the Broken Chain
A hydrogeochemical analysis of multiple samples stemming from two fractured rock aquifers in the Karoo geological formation of South Africa was undertaken. The samples were taken using various sampling methods in numerous locations over varying time frames. The ion error balance for the groundwater samples from the previously mentioned secondary aquifers is further analysed. Graphical representation of the data, which includes a piper plot, gives insight into the groundwater geochemistry.
