Get PriceAug 01, 2021 Because manganese is naturally occurring in surface water, it’ll usually get into wells through surface runoff and rainwater sources. When water seeps through soils containing this metal, it picks it up, which may result in it entering the well through the aquifer. Iron and manganese often occur in water together. These metals are more common in deeper wells, as water usually has a longer
