Flooding has as its main motivation the drainage of cities and urban occupation. In addition to the common causes of man-made floods such as excess pollution, urbanization is a significant contributor to flooding. The unregulated use of geographical spaces for the construction of cities increases soil sealing, which prevents water from evaporating effectively and thus causing runoff. Another factor is the precarious water drainage system and the excess waste produced and disposed of in an irregular manner that causes trench clogging, pollution and increases the level of the rivers.

The Precambrian rocks are mainly characterized by the presence of igneous and metamorphic types of rocks, typically schist, gneiss, and granite. These are much older than the Cambrian sedimentary rocks.

The unconformities are usually defined as the time of non-deposition, which creates gaps in the geological rock sequences.

The type of unconformity that occurs in the above-given condition is the non-conformity. This type of unconformity is found when the older igneous or metamorphic rocks are underlain by the younger sedimentary rocks.
