RC Grade Control

In-pit RC drilling that defines ore boundaries, supports mine planning and improves blast control.
Typical depthup to 350 m
MethodReverse Circulation
ApplicationProduction benches

RC/GC is typical drilled to optimal depths of 48 meters using hole Ø 125-140mm.

This information is critical to reduce waste rock (dilution) in concentrator feed as dilution can vary greatly. RC grade control is the most cost-effective and accurate way to define boundaries between waste rock and ore bodies.
