Email to a Friend
Some of the weapons testing shafts at Mercury, Nevada require depths of 1000ft and diameters of 10 feet. The top 40 feet to 65 feet is drilled, blasted and excavated by Large caisson type augers in order to provide vertical working room for the placement of large, oil field type, drilling rigs and the required drill collar.
