Abstract:Main types of groundwater in Tai'an area of Shandong province are loose pore water type, metamorphic and igneous rock fissure water type and carbonate fracture-karst water type. Through analyzing hydrogeological characteristics of different tectonic units, by using different geophysical methods, resistivity differences of rocks have been measured, the watery has been donducted, rich water strata can be determined, and water exploration can be realized through geological drilling. During the period of drought drilling projects in Tai'an area in Shandong province in 2010—2011, by using high-density resistivity method, important achievements have been gained in water exploration.
