Core Drill Rig Supplied for Copper Exploration Project in Chile

A mining exploration company in northern Chile required a high-performance core drill rig for a copper exploration project located in a mountainous area. The region is known for hard rock formations and demanding working conditions, which required stable drilling performance and high core recovery rates.

After technical discussions, we supplied a heavy-duty diesel-powered core drill rig equipped with a high-torque rotary head and reinforced drilling rods. The rig was designed to operate continuously under high altitude and dry climate conditions commonly found in Chilean mining regions.

During field operations, the core drill rig achieved consistent penetration speed and excellent core sample quality. The geological team was able to clearly identify copper-bearing layers, supporting accurate resource evaluation.

The client praised the machine’s durability and drilling efficiency, stating:

“The core drill rig performs very well in hard rock. It is reliable and easy to maintain.”

This successful project strengthened our cooperation with mining companies in Chile.
