Finding the Right Rig for Mineral Exploration

  • Geology of Earth is a topic that is vast and
    intense. Investigating sampling the earth, sets
    forth many challenges and brings the necessity of
    analyzing several factors to choose an
    appropriate drilling rig. Such considerable
    aspects are as follows

  • Type of Samples Required
  • Most geologists associate samples with coring,
    for which a chuck drive coring rig is used. But
    instead of core, a chip sample from open hole is
    only required to see if target mineral exists.
    For quick uncontaminated sample, Reverse
    Circulation drilling is suggested.

  • Capability of Drilling of Formation
  • The process of retrieving the core sample is not
    always easy. For instance, sand and gravel
    formations can make it hard to recover samples.
    For the most difficult geologies, a sonic rig
    would be an ideal choice to retrieve samples.

  • Rig Size Budget
  • The depth and diameter of the bore or the core
    size are the parameters that determine the choice
    of rig size. As for budget, a high priced
    full-fledged provides higher meterage rates while
    inexpensive ones can drill depths of up to 200m.

  • Type of carrier
  • Rig manufacturers offer a range of carriers such
    as truck, trailer, tractor, crawler and more.
    Crawlers would do well for mining locations
    whereas trucks are ideal in dry and flat areas.

  • Now that you have realized the key parameters to
    consider for your exploration requirements,
    approach an exploration rig manufacturer for
    suggestions.
  • Paranthaman Exporters is an award winning rig
    manufacturer that have been manufacturing
    exporting drilling rigs to over 30 countries. For
