une colonne de puits remblayée par le passé, sans précaution spéciale au niveau des recettes, peut sous l'action de la remontée du niveau de l'eau de l'aquifère minier se vidanger totalement et très brutalement. Ce phénomène qui peut former un cône d'éboulement dans des terrains de surface sans cohésion est appelé “débourrage” du puits.

Genesis 26
Here we see Isaac unblock the wells of Abraham. We see Isaac take possession of generational blessing. The covenant was passed down. But just possessing the promise was not enough. The wells of blessing were blocked by the enemy. Isaac had to unblock them. ]
