Mineral exploration involves drilling to probe the contents of known ore deposits and potential sites to produce rock chips and samples of the core. Drilling is used in areas that have been identified as targets with potential deposits based on geological, geophysical and geochemical surveys which have led to the design of the drilling programme.

Drilling Techniques: Continuous Core Drilling-works on the principle of reverse circulation (RC). Reverse Circulation refers to circulating air down to the bit head outside the drill rods and returning it up through inside the bit, core barrel and drill rods. The effect of reverse circulating water is to continuously float the core back to the surface through bit, barrel and rods.
