Under the control of complex geological structure, shallow groundwater and part of precipitation in these areas are gathered in the city, forming relatively rich karst water resources, with proven groundwater reserves of 3.54 billion cubic meters.

There are about 500 square kilometers of piedmont hills and gravel slopes in the southern foot of Taihang Mountain in northern Jiaozuo. The geology is hard and stable, and the stratum has great bearing capacity. In addition, it is close to mines, water sources, traffic trunk lines and towns. It is an ideal industrial land and is also very suitable for building high-rise buildings.
