There isn\u2019t a perfect drill bit matrix or geometry that cuts every ground as quickly as possible. A Longyear bit may cut 17 inches per minute in Arizona, but cut just three inches per minute in Ontario.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Although diamond drill bit selection is often an afterthought, it\u2019s just as important as drillers deciding how much water\/mud to run or how fast to spin rods.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span12\"><blockquote  class=\"tcvpb_blockquote tcvpb_blockquote_style1 \">\n\t\t\n\t\t\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Although diamond drill bit selection is often an afterthought, it\u2019s just as important as drillers deciding how much water\/mud to run or how fast to spin rods.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/blockquote><h3  ><span>Step 1: Identify the Main Objective<\/span><\/h3><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">There are many factors to consider when selecting a drill bit, including the main objective of a project. As mentioned, the overarching objective is always more core in the box, but there are additional elements that need to be considered. For example, a rod trip takes significantly less time at 400 feet than a rod trip at 4,000 feet. While bit life is important, it\u2019s less crucial at the top of a hole because that usually means sacrificing penetration rates.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span6\"><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">In Australia, a site used two different bits at different depths. A Longyear Red Express bit was used to cut 60 centimeters per meter with a life of only 120 meters at the top of the hole. Once that bit was done they switched to a Longyear Yellow Stage 3, because rod tripping took too long. With this bit they only cut at 35 centimeters per minute but achieved a life of 300 meters per bit. Using a singular Longyear bit, this site put 6% more core in the box than they did with a competitor\u2019s bit. However, using these two Longyear bits in tandem, they saw a 23% increase of core in the box over the competitor\u2019s product. Sometimes, it\u2019s more beneficial to cut faster even if it means tripping more.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span6\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/vickers_hardness_mohs_hardness.png\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span12\"><h3  ><span>Step 2: Determine Ground Hardness<\/span><\/h3><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Once a driller decides whether the objective is cutting faster or tripping less often, next it\u2019s important to establish how hard the ground is to cut. Contrary to popular belief, the ground drillers cut is (probably) not the hardest ground on earth. This is where the Mohs scale comes into play. The Mohs scale is an exponential scale from 1 to 10 to quantify mineral hardness. Minerals with a higher Mohs hardness will scratch anything with a lower Mohs hardness. For example, a mineral classified as a four will scratch a three but not a five.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">All the bits offered on the market today are targeting a specific range of the Mohs scale for the best performance. To determine the Mohs hardness of the rock to be drilled, a Mohs hardness scratch test kit is needed. This kit is a series of picks made of different materials that, when used properly, can determine the Mohs hardness plus or minus 0.5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">The Boart Longyear scratch test kit has four scratchers with eight replaceable tips and a sharpening stone. If the numbered tip scratches the rock, the rock is softer than the number on the tip. If a seven scratches and a six doesn\u2019t, you know you\u2019re in 6.5 rock. You would then select the bit created for that rock.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span12\"><h3  ><span>Step 3: Select Color Bit<\/span><\/h3><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Once ground hardness is identified, Boart Longyear offers a <a href=\"http:\/\/app.boartlongyear.com\/brochures\/Longyear%20Bits%20Hardness%20Rating%20&amp;%20Comparison%20Chart.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Longyear Diamond Bits Hardness Rating &amp; Comparison Chart<\/a> to find a recommended bit for that ground. For example, Purple is meant for 1 - 4.5 rock, up to Red which is best for 7.5 \u2013 9. Purple covers such a large range numerically because the Mohs scale is exponential (1 and 4.5 on the Mohs scale are closer together on \u201ctrue\u201d hardness than 7.5 and 9).<\/p>\n<\/div><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/longyear-diamond-bits-chart.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">In the cross reference above, bit range overlaps, and the bars representing each drill bit are quite long. This is where the objectives of the site come into play. For example, if you are in a 6.5 rock, select a Green Bit or a Yellow Bit. Which one should you try first? It depends. If the site is cutting a lot of short holes and bit life isn\u2019t a big concern, you would likely have the best luck with Yellow \u2013 it would penetrate faster than Green, but not have as long of life in 6.5 rock. On the flip side, if bit life is a concern because you\u2019re drilling deep holes, you may prefer Green.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Another thing to consider for bit selection is geometry. While the Green bit is, in general, tougher than the Yellow, a Green bit with more open area and a Yellow with less open area will exhibit very similar cutting characteristics.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span12\"><h3  ><span>Step 4: Select the Correct Geometry<\/span><\/h3><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">The geometries offered by Boart Longyear are all designed to cut a little differently. Within each color bar, the Express has the ability to cut harder rock than the Stage and the Stage will cut harder rock than the Tapered Waterway. This is a result of what is called, \u201copen area\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Open area is determined by finding the surface area of a disc with the same outside diameter and inside diameter as the drill bit, and subtracting the surface area of the drill bit with all the waterways cut in. What\u2019s left is the area of the waterways, flutes, and rounds, and the percentage of this number compared to the area of the total disc is the open area. Express has an open area of 30%, Tapered Waterway has an open area of 25% and Stage has an open area of 20%.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span4\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/standard-waterways.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span8\"><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\"><strong>Standard Waterways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">\u2022 Most common waterway style<br>\u2022 Longest life based on lowest open area 15%<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span4\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tapered-waterways.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span8\"><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Tapered Waterways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u2022 Pushes cuttings to the OD and reduces pressure across bit face<br>\u2022 Open area 25%<br>\u2022 Preferred<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span4\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/express-waterway.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span8\"><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\"><strong>Express Waterways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">\u2022 Faster penetration and\/or lower weight<br>\u2022 Open area 30%<br>\u2022 Free-cutting formulas<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span4\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/stage-gt.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span8\"><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\"><strong>Stage\/GT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">\u2022 Wide waterways, more versatile<br>\u2022 Better flushing and penetration than standard waterways<br>\u2022 Open area 20% for Stage<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span4\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/deep-ID-waterway.png\"><\/div><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span8\"><span class=\"clear\" style=\"height:25px;display:block;\"><\/span><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\"><strong>Deep ID Waterways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">\u2022 Recommended for lost circulation applications; prevents the lifter case pulling into the bit and shutting off water<br>\u2022 Can be used instead of face discharge in triple-tube and piloted core lifter case<br>\u2022 Face Discharge preferred for core recovery.

To cut it more slowly and optimize bit life, a Green Stage bit should be used. A Green Express, a Green Tapered Waterway and a Yellow Stage would land somewhere in-between.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span6\"><div  class=\"tcvpb-image \" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boartlongyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hardness-rating-yellow-green.png\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t<\/section><section class=\"tcvpb_section_tc\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"tcvpb_section_content\"><div class=\"tcvpb_container\"><div class=\"tcvpb_column_tc_span12\"><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Once a bit has been selected for the rock type, crown height, and geometry, the last step is to collect data and test the chosen bit\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3  ><span>Step 5: Test the Selected Bit<\/span><\/h3><div  class=\"\" >\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Once the ideal bit has been identified \u2013 it needs to be tested, and the only way to make an informed decision during testing is to collect data.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Here are three mandatory data points to collect:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2022 Penetration rate on every run<br>\u2022 Mohs hardness every run<br>\u2022 Bit life of every bit<\/p>\n<p class=\"p_tc\">Once the data has been collected, this information can be used to either validate the choice initially made or adapt based on unaccounted circumstances. For example, if the Green Stage bit was selected but the penetration rate wasn\u2019t as high as expected, then the Green Express and the Yellow Stage would be good bits to try next. The Yellow Stage may not provide the desired life, but the Green Express may be a perfect in-between.
