Default Re: Deep Underground, Water Pierces Solid Rock

Water has a very potent wear action. It's used in industry in some cases to cut steel, to blast and remove paint; not just any paint, epoxy paint. Paint that is mixed from two part chemicals for harsh environments such as salt air, oceans, on oil rigs and platforms.

That paint is made for special purposes and is highly durable to everything but a blow to it. It tends to withstand salt air and water, electrolysis action to some degree, especially when aided with rectifiers, most chemicals, and weathers when older in a form of powdering that provides a self cleaning surface. While the paint is tough, it's rough to remove. In most cases, black blasting sand is used, but in rare cases where sparks are a concern, water blasting is used instead.

Depending on the method and the equipment, steel can be cut with water as easy as a cutting torch. Only the tip is usually ceramic lined to withstand the wearing action while directing the water blast to it's target.

That nature duplicates the process is not out of bounds at all.
