Our Headquarter
Where we drill
A Western Australian-based drilling contractor that offers mineral exploration drilling and specialises in salt lake drilling services.
Raglan Drilling was founded in 2006 by brothers, Hugo and Gus Lacey. Gus’ background as a geologist and Hugo as an experienced driller provides Raglan Drilling with a wealth of knowledge from both sides of the industry such as understanding the importance of high-quality sample recovery.
The team is headquartered in Kalgoorlie and services the entire Western Australia region.
Growing from one Air Core (AC) drilling rig when first established, Raglan Drilling now boasts a fleet of 21 rigs that cover drilling methods of lake, Rotary Air Blast (RAB), AC, Reverse Circulation (RC), diamond and auger drilling.
Within the fleet are three land-based, high-performance AC rigs and two lake AC rigs that have a total drill depth of 180 metres. Further, Raglan Drilling also owns and operates one lake RC, three land-based diamond and three lake diamond drill rigs. The remaining 11 rigs are land-based RC and RAB drill rigs that can reach a total drill depth of 700 metres.
With over a decade in salt lake drilling, Raglan Drilling operates a fleet of mobile, small footprint AC rigs for those “hard to reach” exploration targets. Low PSI, interchangeable crawler-based carriers are included in the fleet to haul drill samples, water, fuel and auxiliary air packages across the lake terrain.
They offer a dedicated and hands-on approach when it comes to providing the highest level of service for their customers. The four pillars that underpin Raglan Drilling are strong leadership, capable people, high-quality plants and equipment, and robust systems.
The Raglan Drilling team provides effective and clear communication with their customers and employees, as well as the highest commitment to health and safety of its employees and the environment, as demonstrated in over five years of ISO accredited systems, to ensure the best outcome for every drill program.
