Diamond core drilling

Elite Drilling crews are experienced in all aspects of core drilling and working in demanding conditions. Our services come with all the necessary equipment to complete your surface exploration job. We use highly mobile, lightweight, heli-portable rigs which are easily converted from fly to unitised rigs with minimal downtime.

Directional core drilling

It is known that drill holes with deviate from their target to some extent. At Elite Drilling, we have experience with many different forms of directional control including steerable core barrels, mud motors and wedging. It is also a cost-effective way for clients to hit many targets without the time delay of unnecessarily moving the drill and drilling rock.
