Exploration and Drilling

Diamond Core Drilling


Diamond core drilling provides high-quality core samples for accurate resource estimation and modeling, while offering key geotechnical insights essential for safe and optimized mine design.

Benefits of diamond Core drilling:

Diamond core drilling offers clients high-quality geological core samples, enabling precise resource modeling and estimation. These samples also yield valuable geotechnical data about the underlying geology, essential for safe and optimized mine design.

    Maximized sample recovery

    Minimal sample contamination

    Clear representation of underlying geology

    Ideal samples for assaying and metallurgical testing

    Oriented core samples for geotechnical analysis of the geology

RC Drilling


RC drilling uses dual-wall drill rods with an inner tube to transport drill cuttings to the surface in a continuous flow. Unlike diamond drilling, it collects rock cuttings instead of core samples. The process is powered by a pneumatic hammer that drives a tungsten-steel bit to crush hard rock. Compressed air creates reverse circulation, pushing the cuttings up the inner tube to a deflector box, where they are directed through a hose into a sample bag. The bags, labeled with location and depth, are then sent to the assay lab for analysis.

Benefits of RC drilling:

    Reliable and uncontaminated samples

    High drilling penetration rates

    Versatile in tough conditions
