Time of day doesn't matter when you are inside the core shack. Diamond drillers work day and night to get those core samples into the corebox and ready for inspection.
Check out more of our Diamond Drilling images at the 2013 Mine expo in Timmins.
An exploration driller uses a Digital RPM Meter to make sure there is no variance in the drills rods RPM.
Checking over the core samples inside the core shack is a routine but highly important job for the diamond drilling company.
Every part of this mine truck will be repaired to prestine condition. This Atlas Copco Industrial worker is starting to remove the tire to be refurbished.
This Atlas Copco Mine Truck was sitting in the shop parking lot waiting to be delivered to it's mine destination.
Today while in the Atlas Copco shop I came across this KoneCrane placing a 21,000 lb weight in the back of this Mine Truck. That's alot of weight to carry AND lift.
I was just at the Atlas Copco Office today and browsing their in house magazine when I came to the back cover and saw my previous blog post image on the back. Perfect timing I guess.
Inside the core shack a diamond driller sets up the rod with an ITH Diamond Drill Bit.
Here is another facility (Vale CORe Project) utilizing Konecranes Overhead Bridge Crane.
