Coiled Tube Turbodrilling: A proposed technology to optimise drilling deep hard rocks for mineral exploration

The need to drill deep boreholes more efficiently for mineral exploration has raised the attention to investigate the feasibility of recent drilling technologies for such applications. The two principal methods of Reverse Circulation (RC) and diamond core drilling are usually used in combination by...
