Reverse Circulation Drilling
Fast, reliable and high-quality RC drilling solutions engineered for mineral exploration and resource definition.
Engineering RC Drilling Solutions
XPLOM provides high-performance Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling services for mineral exploration, resource definition and hydrogeological investigations. Our experienced drilling crews operate purpose-built RC equipment designed to deliver fast penetration rates, representative samples and reliable field performance under demanding mining conditions.
Using dual-wall drill rods and compressed air circulation, drill cuttings are transported directly from the drill bit to the cyclone through the inner tube. This controlled sample recovery system minimises contamination while improving drilling efficiency and productivity.
Applications
- Mineral Exploration
- Hydrogeological Drilling
- Angle Drilling (-45° to -90°)
- Subhorizontal Drainage Drilling
