impermeable.
An impermeable rock that does not allow water to pass through is called a impermeable rock, such as shale or clay. These rocks have very low porosity and permeability, preventing water from flowing through them.
Impermeable. The pores in solid rock are too small for water to flow through.
Such soil or rock is 'impervious'.
Permeable soil and rock that allows water to pass through it easily is called "porous" or "permeable" media. This type of material typically has open spaces or pores that enable water to flow through it.
Impermeable rock has a very low porosity and lacks interconnected pore spaces that allow water to flow through. As a result, water cannot penetrate through impermeable rock, making it water-resistant.
Water cannot pass through a solid rock because the rock's structure is tight and does not have spaces for the water to flow through. The pores in the rock are too small for water molecules to move through.

It isn't porous

The Dull and grainy looking rock is more likely to let water pass though
rock holds water because rock have very tiny molecules and they are so close that water cannot pass through it
When a rock allows water to pass through it, this property is referred to as "permeability." Permeable rocks have interconnected pores or fractures that enable the movement of water and other fluids. In contrast, rocks that do not permit water to flow through them are considered "impermeable."

The word is porous.
A layer of rock or soil that does not allow water to pass through it .
A dull grainy looking rock is more likely to let water pass through it compared to a smooth shiny rock. The rough texture of the grainy rock provides more surface area for water to seep into and flow through, while the smooth rock may have a more compact structure that prevents easy passage of water.
