It is during the development stage that Foraco markets some of its more technical drilling techniques, such as: Drilling services are often of the same type, but volumes and duration much larger. Development drilling often requires additional rigs performing larger drilling campaigns, “ramping up” from the earlier exploration stage. To obtain sufficient information development drilling is completed – using in very large volumes - providing detailed definition and parameters of the ore body. External and internal financing requires a definitive review of the project economics (precise location, grade and tonnage) before funds are committed to advance a project. Once discovered, the viability of a new mine or expansion project needs to be proven demanding extensive development drilling. Foraco specializes in operating under harsh environments, including deserts and artic terrain, rain forests, high altitude and ultra-deep deposits as well as some of the most inaccessible locations on earth - all of which require, best in class people and equipment, operational excellence and planning.įoraco’s many years of experience under these conditions allows us to offer complete drilling solutions utilizing a variety of drilling techniques including deep directional coring, Heli-portable drilling, underground coring, reverse circulation, air core and rotary drilling services all staffed by some of the most experienced and highly trained crews and supervision in the industry. Increasingly, these discoveries – both on surface and underground - occur in some of the most remote regions of the world that require us to address not only the customer’s technical requirements but also accessibility of the drilling site, topography, water supply, and ground conditions. The discovery of virtually all mines depends on exploration drilling and along with the search for water, this is where the Foraco story began.
