Transportborrning : Undersökningsborrning i Kiirunavaara
In the Kiirunavaara mine, the total length of drilling is about 1138000 meters each year with two different drilling methods. Production drilling is performed with a hammer drill while explorationdrilling is performed with a diamond drill. Explorationdrilling is applied toidentify the position ofthe...
