Reliable gold exploration starts with getting clean samples quickly. In the mining industry, time equals money. Many contractors struggle with slow drilling speeds and contaminated samples. This success story features Mr. Kwesi, a veteran mining contractor in Ghana. He needed a high-performance RC drill rig for sale to handle the tough quartz veins of the Ashanti Gold Belt. Before finding YG Machinery, his projects were constantly behind schedule.

Why a Mining Expert Needed an RC Drill Rig for Sale

Mr. Kwesi oversees multiple gold exploration sites throughout Western Ghana. His old equipment was sluggish and consumed way too much water. In arid regions, hauling water can get really pricey. What he needed was a reverse circulation drilling rig that could reach deep depths without relying on water. Most importantly, he had to avoid any “down-hole” contamination. He came to the realization that a standard core drill just wouldn’t cut it for the high-stakes projects he was handling.
