$NTU - Heavy rare earth developer, Northern Minerals is pleased to advise new assay results from the mineral resource definition drilling program at Wolverine deposit. The Browns Range Heavy Rare Earth (HRE) Project is located approximately 160km southeast of the town of Halls Creek, in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The results relate to the mineral resource definition drilling program at the Wolverine deposit during FY Q2-Q3 2024, and one remaining drillhole from the previous ore characterization and geotechnical drilling program completed in FY Q3 2023. Executive Chairman Mr. Nick Curtis AM commented: “The new assay results are very encouraging and emphasise the unique nature of the Browns Range system. These results materially increase confidence in the development of the Wolverine deposit as the first mine within the larger Browns Range system. The exceptional results of the newest Wolverine resource definition drilling program and the increased geological understanding from the drill results and the structural association model supports our regional geological understanding and suggests high-grade opportunities beyond the Wolverine deposit out across the broader Browns Range system. This is encouraging for future exploration success. We are grateful that the Company was able to progress this Program as a result of the grant monies received from the Federal Government.

This truck is equipped with an extended arm (or boom) that allows it to reach farther and drill into rocks or other hard materials in areas that may be difficult to access with traditional drilling equipment. The key features of an extended arm rock drilling truck include: Extended Boom: The most distinguishing characteristic is its elongated arm or boom, which enables it to drill in locations that would be unreachable with shorter drilling rigs. Powerful Drilling Capabilities: It is equipped with a powerful drilling system, including high-torque motors, hydraulic systems, and drills bits designed to penetrate through various types of rock formations. Versatility: The truck can be used for a wide range of applications, including mining, geological exploration, tunnel boring, and foundation drilling for construction projects. Mobility: Despite its size and capabilities, the truck is designed to be mobile, allowing it to move between drilling sites as needed. Precision Control: Advanced control systems enable operators to precisely position the drilling arm and monitor drilling progress in real-time. These trucks are essential for projects that require deep drilling or drilling in areas with limited accessibility, such as steep slopes, rocky terrain, or underwater environments. They are often custom-built to meet specific project requirements and can be equipped with additional features like stabilizers, lighting systems, and environmental controls to ensure safe and efficient operation in challenging conditions. #cementmixer #tunnel #hydropower #heavymachine #concretepump #concrete #trailcocretepump #concretebuilding #concretepumpmachine #concretelinemachine #wetsprayingmachine #shotcretemachine #manufacturer #factory #truckmountedconcretepump #truckmountedconcretemachine #usedshotcretemachine #usedwetshotcretemachine #usedboompump #usedtruckedboompump #rockdrillingmachine #longarmwetsprayingmachine #boompump #concretepump #soilspraying #threeinone #concretemachine #wetshotcretemachine #shotcretemachine #25mboompump #25mshotcrete #25msoilspraying #25mlongarmshotcrete #25mroboticshotcrete

Tapered Bits are a type of drill bit used for rock or geological exploration drilling. They are usually made of high speed steel or tungsten steel and have a tapered design for use with tapered drill pipe. Tapered drill pipe typically has a tapered bit and a threaded shank at one end to allow it to be connected to other drill pipe and drilling equipment.

Many types of drilling bits 🪨 used in groundwater, oil & gas exploration, 1. Tricone Bits 🔻 - These bits have three rotating cones with teeth that crush and break the rock formation. They are ideal for drilling through hard rock formations. 2. PDC Bits - Polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits have a diamond-impregnated cutting surface that can drill through soft to medium-hard rock formations. 3. Tungsten Carbide Insert (TCI) Bits - These bits have tungsten carbide inserts that are brazed onto the steel body of the bit. They are ideal for drilling through abrasive rock formations. 4. Diamond Bits 💎 - These bits have a diamond-impregnated cutting surface that can drill through hard rock formations. They are typically used in diamond core drilling. 5. Hammer Bits hammer 🔨 - These bits use a hammering action to break up the rock formation. They are ideal for drilling through hard rock formations. The choice of drilling bit banks upon the type of rock formation being drilled and the depth of the borehole required. Experienced groundwater drilling professionals can help determine the best type of bit to use for a particular drilling project.
