Surface Core Drilling
We use highly mobile surface core drill rigs configured as truck, crawler and skid mounted. Our fleet can support a wide range of drilling applications and are capable of drilling depths up to 10,000+ feet. Our clients have already utilized our surface rigs for applications such as:
- Mineral exploration
- Multi-Purpose Drilling
- Percussive / DTH Drilling
- Feasibility analysis
- Installing Piezometers
- Instrumentation installation
- Oriented Core
- Production & Monitor wells
Our track record of safely hitting targets, recovering perfect samples and adapting to clients specific needs while adhering to planned budgets are the main reasons so many mines and engineers use ADC.
