RAISEBORING
From management consulting and
operations personnel, to in-house
engineering and service technicians,
Redpath offers full turn-key
raiseboring contracting services.
Through our ability to successfully
and safely complete raiseboring
assignments under difficult or
unusual conditions, the Redpath
Raiseboring team offers honed
skills and experience that are
indispensable for clients considering
raiseboring projects of any scope.
Contracting experience, combined
with manufacturing and service
capabilities, enable Redpath to
provide a level of service unparalleled
in the industry. Each raise drill is
designed and built by raise drillers
for raise drillers.
Whether small or large diameter
openings, Redpath meets the demand
for ventilation raises, production
shafts, pilots for slashed and raised
shafts, escape manways, fill raises,
ore and waste passes and slot raises.
Meeting the Challenge
Safety - First, Last and Always
is the guiding principle by which
Redpath operates and we endeavour
to make every Redpath job a safe
one. Everyone at Redpath has a
responsibility to each other and
themselves to work safely.
To provide the mining industry with
a level of service that will exceed
normally accepted standards is the
philosophy applied on all Redpath
projects. A quality product from
concept to completion is the result of
this commitment.
We believe that respect for our
natural environment is paramount
to the success of The Redpath
Group and our industry, and we take
the necessary precautions for its
protection.
As Redpath faces the challenges of
the future, our commitment to safety,
quality and the environment will
continue.
MANUFACTURING
The development of the Redpath
Redbore raise drill is one result of
innovation born from the determination
to meet specific challenges and fill
the client’s needs. From the original
Redbore 40 to the Redbore 100, The
Redpath Group is pleased to present
its Redbore family of raise drills.
For over forty years, the Redpath
raiseboring manufacturing team has
continually innovated to develop and
deliver the latest technology in the
industry, resulting in the Redbore
family of raise drills. The fleet has
expanded to include the Redbore
30, 40, 50MDUR, 50, 60, 70, 90
models, alongside the world’s largest
capacity raise drill, the Redbore 100.
The Redbore fleet of raise drills are
capable of handling a full-range of
diameter and depth of openings; our
raise drills are acclaimed for their
unique power output and compact
design.
Redpath is the only Canadian
manufacturer of raise drills which has
grown to earn the title of being the
largest manufacturer in North America.
With the most reliable parts inventory
available worldwide, Redpath is
one of the few manufacturers that
offer a reliable, dedicated team of
on-hand qualified designers and
technicians. Redpath provides
assistance and expertise to clients
using a custom built training program
designed to assist clients train their
operators and maintenance personnel
comprehensively and safely. The
raise drill manufacturing team is
equally capable to service all makes
and models of raise drills, including
the design and manufacture of new
efficient systems to upgrade older
equipment when required.
With one of the most extensive fleets
of raiseboring equipment in the world,
Redpath leads the way in technology
and experience. Technological
advances, such as the introduction
of volts per hertz drives to the industry,
are now becoming a standard in
the manufacture of raise drills.
The capability of semi automated
operation, additionally enhances our
state-of-the-art raiseboring services.

The Model BH-30 is a third generation
instrument designed to rapidly locate
pilot holes that have failed to intersect
a drift or other accessible target area.
The equipment consists of a rugged
waterproof Transmitting Probe and a
small battery powered signal strength
Receiving Unit.
When a drill hole fails to intersect the
drift (or other open target area) the
drill rods are removed and the
BH-30 Transmitting Probe is activated
The BH-30 Transmitting Probe may
be used with the BH-10 or BH-20
Receiver Unit. It is powered by 4
‘C’ cells and is Crystal controlled at
990Hz.
The BH-30 Receiver Unit is tuned to
990Hz and powered by two standard
‘9v’ batteries. A Solid-state columnar
readout provides distance in feet from
the Transmitting Probe.

THE REDPATH GROUP
Established in 1962, Redpath provides
full and comprehensive expertise and
experienced services to the global
mining industry. Companies choose
Redpath for our global family of highly
qualified personnel, unwavering
commitment to maintaining the
highest safety standards and our ability
to meet deadlines.
Technical and operational expertise
contributes greatly to our reputation
for practical and innovative
performance, resulting in the
successful completion of complex,
challenging mine development and
construction projects.
Project Highlights
In the mountains of Irian Jaya,
Indonesia, Redpath has worked
continuously since 1981 and has
excavated raises inside adits at an
elevation of 4100 m (13,451 ft.). Initial
access to the mine and raise drill sites
was via the largest single span cable
car tram in the world, or by helicopter.
In the Arctic, Redpath raisebored
the first raise in permafrost,
and completed surface raises
during February and March when
temperatures plummeted below -40°C.
Initial access to these projects for
machinery, personnel and supplies was
primarily by aircraft.
