The system has been explored and mapped by cave divers of the Jacob's Well Exploration Project and has been shown to consist of two principal conduits. One passageway measures approximately 4,500 feet (1,400 m) from the surface with a maximum depth of 137 feet (42 m), and a secondary one extends approximately 1,000 feet (300 m) in length from the point where it diverges from the main conduit.
The U.S. Geologic Survey measured a zero cubic feet per second discharge from the well. The recommended flow rate is 4 to 7 cubic feet per second.

The floor of Little Basin, close to the foot of its encircling bluff, shows a number of shallow depressions, apparently the nearly healed scars of other and earlier sink holes. St. Jacob's Well has every appearance of having been rather recently formed. [6] Research has determined that St Jacob's Well is 84 ft (26 m) wide and 58 ft (18 m) deep.
