Are you troubled by these problems?
At mineral exploration sites, time is money—traditional mechanical drilling rigs frequently experience stuck drill incidents, each delaying operation by 2-3 days; equipment has a high failure rate under harsh operating conditions, and long lead times for imported parts cause continuously increasing downtime losses; after purchasing imported equipment, after-sales service response is slow and technical support is inadequate, meaning even minor issues can take up to a week to resume operations.
YG Machinery’s fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rig uses a fully hydraulic drive system, achieving stepless and precise control of drilling parameters, allowing operators to optimize drilling strategies in real time according to different geological conditions; key components are sourced from internationally renowned brands, coupled with our service network covering more than 50 countries worldwide, ensuring a 24-hour response time for equipment failures; the factory-direct sales model eliminates intermediaries, allowing customers to obtain rigorously quality-inspected products at more favorable prices.
Key Advantages Overview:
- Fully Hydraulic Servo Control: Drilling speed, torque, and feed force are all precisely adjusted by the hydraulic system, increasing adaptability to complex formations by 60% and effectively reducing stuck drill accidents.
- Modular Quick-Assembly Design: The drilling rig supports containerized transport, reducing preparation time for a single relocation from 48 hours to 8 hours, significantly improving turnaround efficiency between projects.
- Deep Hole Stable Operation Capability: Standard configuration depth up to 1500 meters, equipped with a dual-density mud circulation system, meeting the stringent requirements of deep hard rock exploration.

What Are the Practical Benefits of Using a Fully Hydraulic Core Exploration Drilling Rig?
- More accurate exploration data: Over 95% core recovery rate ensures intact core samples, reliable geological data, and avoids misjudgments and millions in losses due to data errors.
- 5 times increased construction efficiency: Wireline coring eliminates the need to lift the entire drill rod, reducing single-hole operation time by 80%, and completing in one month what used to take five months.
- 70% reduction in labor costs: The equipment can be operated by just two people, eliminating the need for extensive worker assistance, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in labor costs annually.
- 3 times longer equipment lifespan: The fully hydraulic system eliminates mechanical wear, simplifies daily maintenance, and allows for a normal service life of up to 10 years. Over 10 years of experience
- Adaptable to complex working conditions: Stable operation in harsh environments such as mountains, deserts, and high altitudes, covering the vast majority of exploration scenarios.
8 Core Drilling Rig Core Application Areas
- Metallic mineral exploration: General survey and detailed exploration of resources such as gold, copper, iron, and bauxite.
- Non-metallic mineral exploration: Exploration and sampling of minerals such as limestone, marble, and graphite.
- Large-scale infrastructure geological exploration: Deep-hole geological exploration for high-speed railways, bridges, and hydropower stations.
- Hydrological well exploration: Construction of deep drinking water wells and irrigation wells.
- Geothermal resource exploration: Geological sampling and drilling of medium-deep geothermal wells.
- Mining production exploration: Reserve verification and ore body boundary delineation during mining operations.

Case Studies of Ghanaian and Chilean Clients Using YG’s Fully Hydraulic Core Drilling Rigs to Complete Projects
Case Study 1: Gold Exploration Project in Ghana
- Client Background: A professional gold exploration company in the Ashanti region of Ghana previously used mechanical drilling rigs, achieving a core recovery rate of only about 65%. Frequent errors in exploration data led to incorrect mining directions and significant losses.
- Problems Faced: The local strata are predominantly granite and gneiss, resulting in low drilling efficiency in hard rock and frequent drill bit jamming and rod breakage. Mechanical drilling rigs required 6 operators, leading to high labor costs.
- Solution: Purchased two standard fully hydraulic core exploration drilling rigs, equipped with NQ and HQ drill pipes, and optimized drilling parameters for the local hard rock formations.
- Results: Core recovery rate in hard rock formations increased to 96%, exploration data became more accurate, and three high-grade ore bodies were successfully delineated; construction efficiency increased fivefold, reducing single-hole operation time from 3 days to half a day; only 2 operators were required, and labor costs were reduced by 70%.
- Customer Testimonial: “This fully hydraulic core drilling rig completely transformed our exploration methods. The core recovery rate and efficiency far exceeded our expectations, helping us find high-grade gold deposits. We recouped the purchase cost in just 3 months.”
Case Study 2: Deep Copper Mine Exploration Project in Chile
- Client Background: A copper exploration company in northern Chile needed to conduct a 550-meter deep hole exploration. The local strata were hard, and ordinary hydraulic drilling rigs could not reach the required depth.
- Problems Faced: Drill rods were prone to breakage during deep hole drilling, resulting in low core recovery rates; high equipment failure rates occurred in high-temperature and dusty environments.
- Solution: Purchased one high-spec fully hydraulic core drilling rig, equipped with NQ drill rods and an intelligent anti-jamming system.
- Results: Successfully completed a 580-meter deep hole exploration with a 94% core recovery rate, passing the client’s acceptance test on the first attempt; the intelligent anti-jamming system effectively prevented drill bit jamming and rod breakage, and the equipment operated continuously for 3 months without failure.
- Customer Review: “YG’s fully hydraulic drilling rig has very stable performance, strong deep hole drilling capability, and fully meets our exploration needs. The after-sales service is also very timely. We will continue to cooperate in the future.”
