Water is a good solvent. It dissolves minerals while passing through the lagers of the ground. A large portion of these materials are: calcium, magnesium, carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, sulfide and nitrate. There is also a possibility of the existence of some other elements such as iron, manganese, aluminum, copper, zinc, bromide, phosphorus, silicate and fluoride in groundwater. The quality of water differs with regard to the kind and amount of dissolved minerals and chemical constituents. Therefore, it was tried to classify the groundwater in Khorasan province in the Islamic Republic of Iran (I.R. Iran) on the basis of their quality. This has been done by collecting data from over 350 samples from 17 cities of the province. As expected, much variety have been observed in the Khorasan groundwater.
