Drilling and sampling are critical steps in evaluating mineral deposits. At US Drills, we utilize modern techniques to ensure precise data collection and reliable results.
Common drilling methods include:
- Core drilling – provides continuous rock samples for detailed analysis
- Reverse circulation (RC) drilling – fast and cost-effective for large areas
- Auger drilling – ideal for shallow exploration
Sampling techniques are equally important. Proper sample preparation ensures accuracy in laboratory testing, reducing contamination and errors. Chain-of-custody procedures and quality control standards are strictly followed.
Advanced laboratory methods, based on Geochemistry, help determine mineral composition and grade. This data plays a vital role in decision-making and project development.
