Our process begins with a thorough site assessment, where we evaluate geological formations and aquifer characteristics using advanced hydrogeological mapping and geophysical surveys. This enables us to identify optimal drilling locations, ensuring maximum yield and minimal environmental impact.
Following the assessment, our skilled drillers employ state-of-the-art drilling techniques, adhering to UK regulations and standards. We utilize environmentally friendly methods to construct wells, ensuring the integrity of the aquifer and surrounding ecosystems.
Once the wells are established, we implement sophisticated monitoring systems to track groundwater levels and quality, ensuring sustainable extraction rates. This is coupled with regular maintenance and efficiency audits to optimize performance and prolong the lifespan of the wells.
At MAYORLYTE LTD, we pride ourselves on our commitment to sustainability and regulatory compliance. Our tailored solutions not only meet the immediate water needs of businesses but also contribute to long-term resource management, safeguarding the UK's groundwater reserves for future generations.
Mining pollution remains a critical issue affecting the environment, human health, and socioeconomic well-being. Our recent research focused on the Luckett Stream in Devon, Southwest England, where we meticulously analyzed dissolved and particulate metal fluxes. Samples were collected from seven locations along the stream, extending from Luckett to Old Mill.
Our primary objective was to pinpoint unique sources contributing to over 75% of annual metal releases, including Fe, Pb, Cu, Zn, and As. Despite the decline of active mining in the UK, the legacy of historical mining operations continues to impact local ecosystems. Metals and metalloids from abandoned mines persistently infiltrate soils and water systems, posing severe risks to wildlife and human health.
We also performed salt gauging measurements at five key locations, such as the car park (downstream), spoil heap, mainstream Old Mill, Oldmill Bridge, and tributary areas to assess water flow dynamics.

Hydrogeological Modelling
Developing hydrogeological models to simulate groundwater flow and behavior. This involves creating detailed models to predict the movement of groundwater, assess aquifer characteristics, and evaluate the impact of groundwater extraction on surrounding environments.
Salt guaging and water Ph
Comprehensive water quality testing includes both salt gauging and pH measurement to provide a complete analysis of water conditions. Salt gauging accurately measures salinity levels, which is crucial for assessing the impact on ecosystems and managing aquatic environments. Concurrently, water pH testing determines the acidity or alkalinity of water, which is vital for understanding its suitability for various uses and ensuring environmental safety. Together, these analyses offer valuable insights into water quality, supporting effective environmental management and research.
Groundwater Quality Analysis
Assessing the quality of groundwater through comprehensive testing and analysis. This includes measuring parameters such as chemical composition, contaminants, and physical properties to ensure that groundwater meets regulatory standards and is safe for use.
Groundwater Monitoring and Management
Implementing and managing groundwater monitoring programs to track changes in groundwater levels, quality, and flow patterns over time. This involves setting up monitoring networks, analyzing data, and providing recommendations for effective groundwater management.
Impact Assessment of Groundwater Extraction
Evaluating the potential impacts of groundwater extraction on local environments and ecosystems. This includes assessing the effects on surface water bodies, soil conditions, and adjacent water users, and developing strategies to mitigate negative impacts.
Regulatory Compliance and Reporting
Ensuring that all groundwater mining and hydrogeology services comply with relevant regulations and standards. This includes preparing and submitting detailed reports to regulatory bodies, and ensuring adherence to legal requirements and best practices.
