ROCK CORE DRILLING

Rock Coring is a method of drilling whch extracts cylindrical samples of the bedrock subsurface. In rock core drilling the coring bit is lowered down the borehole with the drill rods onto the bedrock. The core bit is designed to cut through the rock as well as capturing a continuous none disturbed core sample of the bedrock. As the core rods rotate at high speed, high pressure water or drilling fluid is pumped down through the drilling rods to the bottom of the core bit allowing to cool the bit and flush out the cuttings. 

Rock coring is widely used in geology, mining and engineering projects. These rock core samples provide valuable information about the composition, structure and properties of the underlying bedrock. This is useful for geological mapping, resource evaluation and for construction purposes.
