We’ve strategically invested in one of Australia’s first, dedicated drifter-rebuild facilities in Townsville, continuing our approach to optimising machine availability and mitigating external supply chain risk.
Down the hole blasting service
Roc-Drill provides down the hole blasting services on projects throughout Australia. We deliver streamlined, efficient down-the-hole blasting services that prioritise quality and safety. We utilise fully integrated systems and connectivity for live updates of actual holes drilled, with pin-point GPS accuracy, delivered on demand to the shotfirers to assist with their QA/QC and loading requirements. This provides a live feed to the client for immediate and prompt decision making.
We understand that QA/QC, safety, and collaboration with our clients is what delivers optimal fragmentation. The execution of this highly important detail is what drives value and mitigates rework.
Our training, quality, safety and compliance systems provide a robust framework for every blast delivered. Our experienced shotfirer crews ensure that Roc-Drill’s down the hole blasting services constantly reflect evolving industry best practice. Our mobile processing units make for efficient load supply and delivery.
Grade Control Drilling
Grade Control Drilling through Reverse Circulation is about quality – in sample, machine and operator.
Our fleet of RC machines is easily transformed to assist with the production fleet, tailoring to shifting needs of ever dynamic mine plans and priorities. This flexibility also increases machine utilisation while decreasing overall project costs.
Grade control is where a driller earns their pay. Proves their skill. Delivers the trickiest of services that stands as evidence that they’ve mastered the drilling art.
At the heart of Roc-Drill’s grade control drilling prowess lies our highly trained, long-standing, and experienced drilling team. Grade control drilling takes talent, situational awareness and experience. Our operators are in tune with their machines – operating to a heightened sense of awareness borne of experience and instinct. A Roc-Drill operator undertaking grade control drilling can be identified by their excellence and understanding of the task at hand.
Maintenance
Effective asset management is the foundational corner stone that enables our operational teams to deliver
Roc-Drill has strategically invested in dedicated maintenance and service teams for both our east and west-coast based operations. We can supply the equipment your project needs because our machines are well maintained.
The highest quality drill rigs are produced by dedicated OEM providers who are skilled at the manufacture and supply of technical heavy equipment. Supporting these machines requires local, dedicated expertise and knowledge that isn’t reliant on external scheduling and availability.
Our maintenance capability provides us with a competitive advantage – giving clients assurance of asset availability and placing project progress at the heart of our value proposition.
