i es WHERE DID YOUR HOLE GO? GET SMART FLEXIT SMART TECHNOLOGY FOR DRILLHOLE SURVEYING ‘Can you rely on your drillholes being straight and following the planned path? Even short drillhales can deviate by a considerable amount and this can have serious consequences in quarrying, blasting and geotechnical work. Costly drillhole data is rendered inaccurate, in some cases almost useless. You could be exposing your operation to unnecessary costs that will erode your profit margin. WITH FLEXIT YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE FLEXIT is a world leader for cutting-edge drillhole surveying and measuring equipment. With FLEXIT ‘SmartTool systems you always know the precise loca- tion and spatial relationships of your drillholes.

SMART DRILLHOLE SURVEY SYSTEMS + Reduced drilling costs * Reduced drilling time * Accurate mining * Quality Assurance of data + Less capital equipment SMART TOOLS SEE IT FROM ALL ANGLES FLEXIT SmartTools use wireless communications. They're easy to use, highly accurate and capable of surveying at all angles. All data generated can be further processed in MeasurelT software and tabulated, plotted and exported to other formats using DisplaylT. The FLEXIT SmartTool range comprises: SingleSmart Using the SensIT probe, SingleSmart records dip and direction angles between drilling operations in single- shot mode. No laptop or PC is needed. The data is, transferred from the onboard memory to the StorelT data pad using the fast, built-in radio link MultiSmart Offers multi-shot measurements using the SensIT probe. MuitiSmart is controlled from StorelT, a laptop. palm or field PC. Seven parameters are recorded at ‘each measuring station, ‘The MultiSmart tracks the path of the hole during a drill-bit change or after completion of the drillhole. ‘The data is transferred from the onboard memory to a Single and MultiSmartTool kit with running gear Running gear for GyroSmart PC through the TransIT, using the fast, built-in radio link. The data is stored in the PC for further calculation and presentation by Measure!T and DisplayIT. GyroSmart GyroSmare is a complete downhole surveying package for logging and mapping of drilled holes. Offering direc- tional surveying in all environments, GyroSmart is also effective in magnetic environments such as inside steel casing, inside drill rods, near iron/steel constructions, and through magnetic ore. Reliable micro gyro technology makes the GyroSmart tool very rugged. The MEMS Gyro sensor system can sustain high shock levels. The GyroSmart requires no conductor cable. Power is provided by a rechargeable internal battery pack and data is transferred to a PC from the onboard memory Using a Bluetooth radio module. The data can be proces- sed in afield computer directly atthe rig and the soft- ware system provides its own internal quality checks. > GyroSmart kit field computer PROCESSING AND PRESENTING YOUR DATA FLEXIT software gives you complete control over your SmartTool system. Two Windows-based software packages, MeasurelT and DisplaylT are supplied with ‘each SmartTool, MeasurelT ‘Also compatible with SingleSmart, use MeasurelT to set up and control a multi-shot survey with the MultiSmart or the GyroSmart. Perform a quality check of the surveyed data and process the raw data from the survey. You can also upload an earlier survey made with StorelT by transferring the data through TransiT into your computer. + Converts a series of single-shot surveys into a rmulti-shot sequence. + Calculates drilhole paths from FLEXIT SmartTools and other survey tools. + Presentation of coordinate date: Station Depth Dip, Dir- ection, Easting, Northing, Elevation and Local co-ordinates. + Has builtin “Quality Assurance”, + Warns you about presence of magnetic disturbances and ives information on the magnetic strength and dip. ft sr nee Hand units DisplayIT ‘Once the data is uploaded and processed in MeasurelT, DisplayiT is used to present the results in graphical or tabular form. You can plot any number of holes to- gether and you have a choice of other measurements to be tabulated. The graphical data is plotted in a cor- rected coordinate system. + Graphical display of drilhole survey paths (single or ‘multiple surveys) in Plan and Section view. Tabular results displayed with all or selected survey and downhole data + Add or remove both actual straight collar extension or original planned path on the graphical display as required. Display too! geophysics (magnetic field strength, tempera- ture) as downhole graphs plotted against the drilhole path, + Pan and zoom buttons for detailed viewing of planned ‘and actual drilhole positions + View and print graphs and tables of selected survey results with fully editable header and footer data + Export of all or selected survey data to files for use in ‘other applications. MeasurelT and DisplaylT software is included free of charge when you purchase any of our SmartTools.

OPERATING MODES ALL THE FLEXIBILITY YOU NEED RUNNING GEAR Each SmartToo! is installed inside a pressure barrel (running gear) to protect it in the drillhole and to adapt the tool to its mode of operation (drill rod, wire line, ete.) ‘The running gear is available in different sizes starting from 36mm (EX). Minimum wire line rod dimension is BQ size. The SmartTools can be operated in a number of different modes. SingleSmart and MultiSmart + In open hole on wireline + In open hole attached to a drill rod + Inside a drill rod where the lowest rods (minimum 6m) are of non-magnetic material + In wireline core drilling by replacing the inner barrel with the running gear and run through and below the bit. + The MultiSmare can also be operated on a releasable wireline into a drill string whose lowest rods (mini- mum 6m) are of non-magnetic material. Survey as you pull the rods, taking a “shot” each time the drill crew breaks out a joint.
