​The application of underground drilling

In addition to obtaining reliable geological data, groundwater, and gas data, tunnel drilling has a speed of several to several tens of times faster than the use of excavation tunnels, and correspondingly greatly reduced exploration costs. This drilling technology has developed into one of the indispensable methods in the process of mineral exploration and mining, and underground drilling is an indispensable tool in underground drilling technology. The following will introduce you to some applications of underground drilling.

Why use underground drilling when drilling?

The underground tunnel has a small space and often needs to open up the drill hole. To reduce the cost of drilling hole development, it is advisable to use small, mechanized, and highly automated drilling equipment, such as underground drilling and using rope coring or hydraulic reverse circulation core drilling technology. We need to drill holes of various azimuths and inclination angles in the tunnel. The drilling rig must be able to drill holes of any angle. Our underground drilling has this function. At the same time, tunnel drilling is limited by the working environment. The power of the drilling rig is only suitable for electric hydraulic motors or compressed air. All equipment must be equipped with waterproof, moisture-proof, fire-proof, explosion-proof, and leakage protection facilities.

What are the main tasks of underground drilling?

1. Underground drilling is used to eliminate hidden dangers, prevent disasters；

2 Drilling and construction of other projects. When used for exploration purposes, underground drilling has the advantages of low cost, high speed compared with tunneling, but the amount of information obtained is not as rich as that of tunneling. When conditions permit, drilling should be used as far as possible instead of tunneling. Using underground drilling instead of ground drilling to explore the deep part of the mine can avoid surface overburden and shallow mined-out areas, which not only saves the amount of drilling engineering, but also simplifies the drilling process, speeds up the work schedule, and reduces costs. Underground drilling refers to the drilling work in which a special drill is used to drill a variety of different angles in a narrow underground tunnel. Compared with surface drilling, underground drilling is mostly an all-directional shallow hole with a small diameter.
