Show transcript
Geologists test different rocks for permeability. This tells them which rocks allow liquid, e.g. water, to pass through.
Permeable rocks, such as sandstone, let water pass through them.
Impermeable rocks, such as marble, do not let water pass through them.
Rocks can be compared and grouped by their permeability.
