Blasting & Explosives
FOR the last 30 years, Maxfield Drilling has strived to achieve world’s best practice in blasthole drilling, through the provision of surface drilling and blasthole drilling services to the mining and quarrying industries.
The drill specialist has operations in Tasmania, NSW and WA, and has just completed a large scale operation in North Queensland.
It is contracted to miners including Alkane Resources, Metals X and Tasmania Mines.
The company’s managing director Mick Maxfield has experience with copper, gold, iron ore and coal.
Maxfield’s state-of-the-art fleet is equipped with hole navigation systems for surveying accuracy and cost savings, and SmartROC for fuel reduction savings.
Maxfield was awarded an innovation award in 2006 for its contribution to the design, conversion and operation of two remote controlled Atlas Copco ROC L8 drills.
