“DrillWest have completed numerous phases of diamond drilling for Independence Group NL over the past year. They have demonstrated a professional attitude and are competent drillers. We have had a good working relationship with DrillWest and will definitely use them again in the future. I would not hesitate in recommending them.”

Senior Geologist, Independence Group NL

“The drill crews worked well together and conducted themselves in a safe and professional manner. Good communication between the driller and client allowed for the navi holes to be monitored and adjusted as needed. This resulted in all holes hit their designed targets.”

Exploration Geologist, Intrepid Mines Ltd

“Daily site safety meetings and weekly toolbox meetings were attended. Any issues raised were rectified in a timely manner. No major incidents occurred during the 7 months Drillwest were on site.”

“I have used Drillwest on many drilling programs since 1996 using aircore, reverse circulation and diamond coring drilling rigs. Their equipment is always new or near new, well maintained, their backup service unexcelled and their staff professional and competent. The team at Drillwest has a ‘Can Do’ attitude.”
