In remote mountainous mineral exploration sites, exploration teams often face a dilemma: traditional drilling rigs rely on manual operation, resulting in slow drill rod connection, limited drilling depth, and a high risk of jamming when encountering hard rock formations, advancing at most 20 meters per day. This not only slows down the exploration progress but also incurs additional labor costs. While large exploration equipment is highly efficient, its large size and difficult transportation make it impossible to reach the rugged mountainous work sites. The YG fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rig solves these problems. Its fully hydraulic drive design eliminates the need for manual pushing of the drill. The hydraulic system automatically controls drilling force and speed, ensuring stable progress even in hard rock, increasing drilling efficiency by 5-10 times compared to traditional drilling rigs. It automatically slows down when encountering soft soil to protect core samples and increases thrust to stabilize drilling in hard rock formations, preventing jamming or core breakage.

YG Fully Hydraulic Core Drilling Rig Core Advantages

  1. High Core Quality: Precise hydraulic control ensures a smooth drilling process, minimizing core vibration and breakage, and guaranteeing the accuracy of geological data.
  2. Easy to Operate: The automated and integrated hydraulic control system replaces the complex gear shifting and clutch operations of traditional mechanical drilling rigs, reducing reliance on highly skilled operators.
  3. Enhanced Construction Safety: Remote or semi-automated drill pipe handling reduces personnel contact with moving parts such as drill pipes. In particular, the multiple safety protections built into the high-pressure hydraulic system make the entire drilling process safer.
  4. Reduced Maintenance Costs: Fewer hydraulic system components with a longer lifespan, and easier diagnosis and maintenance, effectively reducing equipment failure rates and long-term operating costs.
  5. High Adaptability: The tracked chassis or adjustable outrigger system allows the core drilling rig to adapt to various complex terrains, including plateaus, mountains, and muddy areas.

Applications of a Fully Hydraulic Core Exploration Drilling Rig

  1. Solid Mineral Exploration: Determining the reserves and grades of deep-seated gold, copper, iron, rare earth, and other mineral resources.
  2. Hydrogeological and Geothermal Exploration: Drilling deep groundwater monitoring wells and geothermal wells; also used as a high-performance water well drilling rig.
  3. Large-Scale Engineering Geological Survey: Conducting detailed geomechanical and engineering surveys for infrastructure projects such as high-rise buildings, large bridges, tunnels, and dams.

Case Studies of Customers in South Africa and Peru Using YG Fully Hydraulic Core Drilling Rigs

Case Study 1: High-Efficiency Core Sampling Project in a South African Gold Mine (400 meters)

Client Background: A South African mining exploration company needed to conduct rapid and dense core sampling around an existing gold deposit, with a required depth of approximately 400 meters. They prioritized speed and core integrity.

Product Used: YG 400 fully hydraulic core drilling rig (crawler).

Results: The client used this fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rig to drill a 400-meter-deep exploration borehole. The results were outstanding:

  • Core Integrity: Due to the precise control of drilling speed and pressure by the fully hydraulic system, the retrieved core samples were extremely intact with very low breakage. This allowed geologists to determine the vein’s direction and grade accurately.
  • Rapid Transfer: The tracked chassis allowed for rapid transfer of the drilling rig across the rugged terrain of the mining area, enabling transfer and preparation for the next borehole to be completed within a day.
  • High Efficiency: Within a depth of 400 meters, the drilling speed was nearly 30% faster than the client’s previous equipment.

Customer testimonial: “YG’s core drilling rig for sale allowed us to obtain the cleanest core samples at a critical depth of 400 meters. Its efficiency and stability completely won us over.”

Case Study 2: Exploration of a Dam Project in the Andes Mountains of Peru (600 meters)

Client Background: A Peruvian engineering geology company was responsible for conducting foundation rock exploration for a large dam project in the Andes Mountains. They needed to drill to a depth of 600 meters to understand the rock structure beneath the dam.

Product Used: YG 600 fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rig (high-power vehicle-mounted).

Results: Even in the high-altitude mountainous environment, this fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rig demonstrated strong power. It successfully completed multiple exploration holes to a depth of 600 meters:

  • Strong Lifting Force: During the lifting and lowering of the drill rod at a depth of 600 meters, the hydraulic system provided a large and stable lifting force, significantly reducing the risk of a stuck drill and the physical exertion of workers.
  • Dual Functionality: After completing core sampling, the client utilized the high torque advantage of this equipment, switching it to water well drilling rig mode to drill a deep water well for the project camp quickly.
  • Data Reliability: The obtained 600-meter core sample was of high quality, providing accurate geological data for dam design.

Customer Testimonial: “We chose this water well drilling rig not only for its exploration capabilities but also for its versatility. Its ability to reliably drill to 600 meters in high-altitude areas is a reliable guarantee for our project.”
