T Xtreme Diamond Core Bits

Diamond drillers understand that some ground is more variable. It may be soft for the first 100 meters and then become harder, or fractured. If the ground is made of a wide range of minerals and several hardness levels have been measured, you need to choose your core bit carefully. The T Xtreme series provides the versatility you need for optimum drilling performance in varying conditions.

 

The T Xtreme line is known for its unsurpassed flexibility in ground variability and includes four matrices that cover ground from 3.5 to 8 on Mohs scale.

We are happy to announce that as of August 2, 2021, all Canadian Fordia offices will be making drill rigs available to their customers. In an earlier blog this year, we announced that drill rigs would be available for sale in the USA and that proved to be successful, so Canada will now join the USA in adding drill rigs to their portfolio of drilling equipment for the mineral exploration industry.

The mineral exploration industry has seen a lot of change in the last few years. One of the most common challenges is finding employees. Between the cyclic nature of the industry and the recent pandemic, many experienced drillers have left and replacing them has been difficult for many companies.

At the beginning of the year, we decided to update our popular eGuides so our customers would have the latest and greatest information. We started with our most popular guide on choosing the right core bit and are now in the process of taking each guide and updating its information to represent the many changes that have occurred over the last few years.

Customer service is our priority.

Please reach out to us. Our team is ready to help with tips, advices or an onsite visit.
