Drilling, Sampling & Assaying

From Drill Bit to Assay Certificate — Data You Can Bank On.

Drilling is where exploration budgets are made or lost. MSA Consulting plans, supervises, and quality-controls your drilling, sampling, and assaying programs in South Sudan — so every metre drilled produces reliable, defensible data.

Drilling Program Design & Management

Well-planned drilling that tests the right targets with the right method — without burning the budget.

  • Drill program planning & hole targeting
  • RC, diamond & auger drilling coordination
  • Drilling contractor selection & supervision
  • Progress, cost & metreage monitoring

Core & Chip Logging

Every metre of core and chips geologically logged — capturing the detail that drives interpretation.

  • Geological & geotechnical core logging
  • RC chip logging & sieving
  • Core photography & recovery/RQD records
  • Core storage & core shed management

Sampling & Sample Management

Disciplined sampling protocols and airtight chain of custody — because assays are only as good as the samples behind them.

  • Sampling protocols & procedures design
  • Core cutting & RC sample splitting
  • Sample numbering, bagging & dispatch
  • Chain of custody documentation

Assay Coordination

The right lab, the right methods, the right turnaround — managed from dispatch to certificate.

  • Accredited laboratory selection & liaison
  • Fire assay for gold & multi-element analysis
  • Sample preparation specifications
  • Turnaround tracking & certificate management

QA/QC & Data Validation

Blanks, duplicates, and standards inserted and monitored — so your results survive investor and auditor scrutiny.

  • QA/QC protocol design (blanks, standards, duplicates)
  • Assay batch monitoring & failure follow-up
  • Drill hole database management & validation
  • Data integrity reviews & audits

Results Interpretation & Reporting

Assay results turned into geological understanding — sections, intercepts, and clear recommendations.

  • Assay results compilation & intercept calculation
  • Drill sections & mineralisation interpretation
  • Program completion reports
  • Next-phase drilling recommendations
