Our innovative reverse circulation (RC) drilling solutions offer you a faster and more cost-effective way to obtain the highest quality mineral samples.
Our dedicated RC drilling specialists have extensive experience across Australia in the most geologically challenging locations.
Drilling for exploration and mining companies is a critical path function to any project’s success. We understand that the accuracy and reliability of the sample’s quality is imperative for effective project planning.
That is why at K-Drill, we only employ proven techniques and procedures to achieve the best possible results.
At K-Drill, safety always comes first. No matter the scope of the project we are delivering. We comply with strict, safety standards. Ensuring the safety of our people and others remains our top priority and is never compromised.

OUR EQUIPMENT
Reverse Circulation Drilling
Reach your targets on time and every time
We operate a fleet of six high-capacity, intrinsically safe, surface RC drill rigs that include automated rod handling and break outs, casing advance and leading air power.
Suitable for Deep Exploration, Resource Definition, Grade Control and Hydro Drilling, our rigs are engineered to reach your targets on time and every time.
Our truck mounted Schramm T685 drilling rigs have been modified to remove the air compressor from the truck to increase rod handling capacity and have a specialised high speed, intrinsically safe rod loading system.
The rigs are significantly lighter than a standard Schramm allowing safer use in the field and access via roads or tracks.
The truck mounted rig packages are capable of drilling RC holes in excess of 500 metres and they carry 330m of on-board drill rods accessed by the hands-free rod handler.
Our remote-controlled air support truck packages are rated at 2500cfm at 350psi or 2300cfm at 1000psi which allows for high quality production of RC holes.
Air Core Drilling
Access remote and difficult locations
Our Air Core drilling rig is versatile in many remote areas of operation. Mounted on a Hino 4x4 truck allows us to access difficult areas that most RC rigs would avoid.
Auger Drilling
Tracked access without clearing
K-Drill’s Auger Rig is mounted on an all-terrain tracked platform. No need for access clearing and we can also provide an all-terrain 4x4 buggy for geological field staff to utilise during field activities.
