Benefits of Diamond Drilling

There are several benefits of diamond coring in the mining exploration industry, including:

  • High precision: This method is able to produce a high-quality core sample that is relatively undisturbed, allowing for an accurate analysis of the mineral deposit.
  • Versatility: A diamond core drill bit can easily cut through hard rock, making the method suitable for a range of exploration drilling applications.
  • Efficiency: It’s a fast and efficient method of drilling, allowing for a larger area to be covered in a shorter amount of time.
  • Cost-effective: It is very cost-effective compared to other drilling methods and can save on drilling costs in the long run.
  • Safety: It’s a relatively safe method of drilling as it produces less rock debris and dust compared to other methods.
  • Reliability: It’s a reliable method of drilling that produces consistent core samples, allowing for accurate geologic analysis of the deposit.
  • Reduced environmental impact: It creates less debris and dust, reduces the need for drilling fluids and is relatively quieter than other methods. This results in less of an environmental impact.
