Questions
How is the ZY-40 different from the ZY-25?
It drills deeper (40 m class versus 25 m) and takes larger core, while staying modular and man-portable for sites without road access.
How does it reach remote sites?
The rig breaks down into loads one or two people can carry, and moves by pack trail, ATV or helicopter.
What core size does it cut?
Core from Φ16 to 32 mm, with wireline retrieval so rods stay in the hole between runs.
What comes in the kit?
Rods, bits, core barrels and a water pump can be quoted as a complete field kit, matched to your program.
How is it priced?
Quoted per order, including shipping to your location.
