This specialist drilling company is currently operating three generations of surface drill rigs, the ROC L8 MK I and ROC L8 MK II supplied by Atlas Copco alongside the latest FlexiROC D65 machines from Epiroc. The recent delivery by Epiroc of three FlexiROC D65 surface drill rigs has bolstered this longstanding Northern Cape customer’s total drilling machine fleet to 51. Booysen Bore purchased their first FlexiROC D65s in 2013 which have up to now drilled in excess of 500 000 x 300mm diameter holes for nine Northern Cape solar farms, as well as a large number of blast hole meters in Northern Cape mines. Their fleet also includes a SmartROC D65 for blast-hole drilling as well as a few CS14 and CS1500 core drilling machines.

In 1954, the economist Paul Samuelson put forward a theory that made a distinction between “private-consumption goods” — bread, cars, houses and the like — and commodities that existed apart from the usual laws of supply and demand. Modern global markets are obviously quite successful at pricing private goods we need and want. But the other type of commodity Samuelson was describing is something now known as a “public good,” which benefits everyone but is not bought, sold or consumed the same way. Definitions of a public good can vary, but the oft-used examples are lighthouses, national defenses and clean air.

Then again, the other scenario is that the vibro hammer causes a catastrophic cave in. According to Lucido, the good news is that the collapse appears to be an isolated event. The bad news? There’s no guarantee that something bigger is not brewing.

Pricing will be even harder. Few utilities in the world charge consumers the full cost of the water they use. And even in countries where they do, a water subsidy may be included in the cost of the goods people buy in shops. To persuade people to recognise and pay for the water-intensity of their lifestyles may require concerted campaigns of the type that have helped cut smoking rates in many places. But because they will affect the entire population, it will be even harder. On the other hand, as experience in some unlikely places has shown—Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, for example—poor people will pay for a clean, reliable source of water. After all, in much of the world, they already pay over the odds for dirty, dangerous and erratic supplies.

Spanish mine-rescue experts were lowered down the shaft, from where they hope to dig a tunnel to reach Julen Rosello, who has been trapped underground for 11 days.

Unlike the convenience of circumcising a baby that sleeps most of the time and is a dependent in society, circumcision during productive work or school years will typically require taking time off, although the amount of time off required is typically small. In one study of men circumcised with the Shang Ring device, men took an average of 1.1 days off work; 80% were back at work by day 2, with only 20% requiring more than 2 days, and little disruption to activities or discomfort was reported for the week the ring was in place [121]. Eighteen percent of men in the study reported disruption to their work while the device was present, and 30% had not resumed routine leisure activities by 7 days. In the large Kenyan RCT, only 4% of men required 3 days or more before they could return to normal activities [57]. In a study of childhood MC, median times of 5 days to return to normal activity and 7 to return to school have been reported [182]. This may have been because children are usually more active than adults, thus increasing the chances of injury and so prolonging the healing period.

By training locals on drilling and businesses techniques, rural villages can become economically sustainable and have access to clean water. A Village Drill is cheaper, costing $18,000, while large drill rigs easily charge double the amount.

Miners working in rotating shifts will dig a four-metre passage with picks and pneumatic hammers from the bottom of the shaft towards the borehole.

The Kalanako MRE is constrained by a conceptual (Whittle) pit based on a gold price of US$1,500/oz, mining cost of US$2.00/t, processing and G&A cost of US$21 for oxide, US$26 for transition and US$25 for fresh, 92 % gold recovery and a pit slope of 40o.

I do have a correction for you guys though. In the Past & Present Performers set you have Card #PPP-MS (Tony Romo/Emmitt Smith) listed as PPP-RS. My copy has MS listed on the back even though it doesn’t match with the naming scheme of the other cards. I’ve noticed also that there are two numbers T60-TB in the 60th Anniversary set. I have both and they both have the same number. Tom Brady & Tim Brown. The 60th card is the only super annoying thing so far about this set. (This is a Topps error, not CC’s mistake.)

Boreholes play a vital role in public and private water supplies; in some cases, the same source has provided a reliable and cost effective supply of water for over a hundred years. However, like everything else, wells and boreholes don’t last forever and they benefit from a little love, care and understanding to ensure continued service and to maximise their efficiency. What follows is a practical guide to installing and rejuvenating a water supply borehole.
