A portable geological core drill is ideal for obtaining core samples from outcrops in situ whilst in the field. Easy to use, portable, robust, and featuring excellent power and torque. The unique design by Geofacotory allows you to process rock coring in all orientations whilst remaining in a safe position. It is ideal for use during the early stages of a mineral exploration project. Particularly where lack of full facilities and bases are absent. Additionally, it is suitable for geotechnical engineers seeking to extract core samples that may need to be tested at a lab later.
The portable geological core drill features a 250 cc petrol engine at its center, which produces 1.5 kW of power. The gear system and water swivel for this drill are chrome, machined, and treated. This is in addition to a ½ inch thread and quarter shut-off valve with a quick-fitting connection. A unique feature of this drill is the inclusion of a push-down frame incorporated directly onto the engine of the drill. This allows you to apply more pressure and stability to the drill, despite the angle. Further allowing for quicker, cleaner removal of the core sample.
This overall kit also comes complete with a rucksack, specifically designed to fit and carry the core drill. Keeping your hands free whilst trekking across the field. Furthermore, it also comes supplied with a water tank, which connects to the drill. This provides lubrication to the drill bit, negating the effects of harmful dusts which you may otherwise inhale.
Overall, this is an excellent, well-built power tool specifically for the geological and geotechnical sectors. It comes with a tailored kit of recovery in accordance with the nature of the geological formation and environment of your trip survey. In addition, a number of core drill bits are available for use with the tool to suit your specific requirements. Whether they be mineral exploration, fieldwork, geological mapping or samples required from remote environments.
