company news about Advanced Drilling Equipment Boosts Efficiency at Kazakhstan Mineral Exploration Site

ALMATY, KAZAKHSTAN – September 2025 – At a major mineral exploration site in eastern Kazakhstan, a complete suite of professional drilling equipment is demonstrating exceptional performance in challenging geological conditions, achieving breakthrough results in both drilling efficiency and core recovery rates.

The project team has deployed a systematic drilling solution including HQ, NQ, and PQ series drill rods paired with enhanced matrix diamond core bits, enabling smooth penetration through hard rock formations. The integrated wireline core barrel systems have maintained consistent core recovery rates above 95%, while significantly reducing trip time.

These tools have revolutionized our drilling operations, reported Site Manager Arman Kozhabekov. The combination of robust casing products (PW, HW, NQ) and specialized reaming shells has provided exceptional stability in fractured zones, allowing us to reach target depths efficiently.

The customized drilling accessories have proven particularly valuable in adapting to the site's variable ground conditions, with the enhanced matrix formulations of the diamond bits demonstrating superior wear resistance in abrasive formations.

With this equipment package, we've achieved drilling rates approximately 25% faster than previous methods while maintaining excellent sample quality, added Chief Geologist Elena Petrova. This represents a significant step forward for exploration efficiency in the region.

The success at this site highlights the growing importance of specialized drilling systems in modern mineral exploration, particularly in complex geological environments typical of Central Asia's mining regions.
