What is a Site Investigation?

A site investigation usually requires proving of ground conditions by excavation or drilling.

Where a property or plot of land is identified as potentially at risk from mine workings, we may specify a drilling investigation to build up a profile of sub-surface characteristics. Our rates for Site Investigation drilling are very competitive. Our drillers all have mining experience and the drilling investigations are directed and reported on by our qualified and experienced Mining Geologists and Geoenvironmental Engineers.
