The CME 55 Track mount is powerful and capable of auger drilling 200', rock coring, tri coning, and DTHH drilling. Our drillingspecialists are experienced in many techniques such as augering, diamond coring, air & mud rotary crush, and DTH hammer drilling. These drilling methods are very useful for geotechnical drilling and sampling to understand more for construction purposes. We also install monitoring wells for hydrogeologicdrilling and envrionmental drilling studies of contaminents and/or behaviour of the water table. Injection wells or injection points are methods used where controlled chemicals are injected into the ground, in order to clean or control a contaminated property. Diamond core drilling is done to gain a sample of the bedrock that lies below the soil. Monitoring wells can be installed in all boreholes.
