This unique offering consists of a deep aquifer artesian water source and a private land holding, the gold and silver of modern times. The well, drilled to a depth of 3,809 feet into the Madison aquifer, provides 1,200 gallons per minute of artesian, spring-quality water. The land, situated in one of the most private locations in the area, combines access and seclusion and is nestled along the North Fork of Crazy Woman Creek. The combination provides the opportunity for the development of a commercial water bottling business, municipal use, commercial energy use, or perhaps a buy-and-hold investment in hard-to-find assets.

The Madison Limestone Formation is a 600-foot-thick limestone/dolomite known to contain good quality and quantity of water. In the northeast region of Wyoming, this formation is believed to be charged with water from the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming and the Black Hills of South Dakota due to the upthrust and surface exposure of the Madison Formation. These Madison exposures at high mountain elevations can create high artesian pressures in the foothills and basins where the formations are deeply buried.
Drilled to a depth of 3,809 feet, the well is rated at 1,200 gallons per minute of artesian flow, with approximately 300 psi of pressure at the surface. The well penetrates 567 feet of the Madison Limestone Formation. The well has been analyzed and rigorously tested for consistency of quality and quantity of flow. Engineering reports and analyses can be provided to qualified buyers.
