Our directional and exploration drilling services combine advanced targeting techniques with flexible drilling capabilities, enabling us to adapt to a wide variety of geological conditions and project requirements. We operate from the earliest stages of exploration through to infill and grade control drilling, ensuring every metre drilled delivers maximum value to our clients. Our approach emphasises precision, efficiency and minimal environmental impact, while maintaining the highest safety and quality standards.
By integrating advanced navigation systems and versatile drilling methods, we can reach complex targets and collect high-quality data essential for accurate resource evaluation, mine planning and long-term operational success. Whether the project requires multi-angle drilling, challenging directional work, or mobilisation to remote and logistically complex locations, our team’s expertise and technology ensure dependable results and optimised project outcomes.
CDHD uses advanced navigation systems to guide borehole paths with precision, enabling accurate drilling in complex underground environments. This approach allows us to steer drill strings efficiently towards target zones while maintaining the structural integrity of surrounding rock formations. Navi drilling is particularly effective for exploration programs requiring controlled deviation and accurate core recovery.
By minimising disruption and improving targeting, we help clients optimise program performance, reduce risk and achieve reliable results in technically challenging or confined operating conditions.
Our multi-angle drilling service allows for flexible borehole orientation, supporting resource definition and exploration programs that require data collection from various directions or formations.
By adjusting drill angles to suit site-specific conditions, we maximise core recovery and enable comprehensive geological mapping. This method is useful for intersecting vein structures or capturing geological variation with minimal additional setup. CDHD applies this technique to help clients reduce program duration, improve sampling efficiency and better understand subsurface conditions across diverse terrain.
CDHD provides grade control and infill drilling services designed to support accurate resource modelling and mine planning. These programs focus on delivering consistent core or chip samples that improve grade estimation and reduce geological uncertainty.
Our crews execute targeted drilling patterns that optimise sampling coverage while maintaining strict recovery and quality standards. The results assist clients in refining pit designs, updating block models and improving project economics. With efficient mobilisation and responsive site execution, we support critical decisions at key project stages.
Our team has extensive experience in managing remote and greenfield drilling programs across Australia’s most logistically challenging locations.
We offer full operational support including camp setup, equipment mobilisation and onsite field management. We maintain consistent productivity in isolated conditions by using compact rigs, reliable transport and experienced crews trained for remote access challenges. This service is suited to early-stage exploration programs that require dependable sampling, limited disturbance and streamlined delivery. Clients rely on CDHD for safe and efficient exploration support in difficult terrain and undeveloped areas.
