Underground Transport

New drill logistically self-sufficient.
The new track-mounted VersaMobile KmN.8UM drill from mining equipment manufacturer VersaDrill Canada is self-sufficient to the point that it does not need mine vehicle involvement to facilitate its transportation when operating underground.
This is the first VersaMobile drill developed by VersaDrill that has been built to reduce the moving time between drill bays. The drill reduces the overall number of vehicles required in an underground mine.
The 9 666 kg steel drill has a depth capacity of 800 m and was officially launched at the 2017 Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada international yearly convention, held in Toronto earlier in March.
The drill took several months of development and design to be finalised and can be ordered from the company’s head office and delivered to any mine in the world.
