geothermal drill

The geothermal drill or flame drill is an innovation on the conventional method of boring holes into the solid upper crust of the earth. Jared Potter and Potter Drilling have been advancing on this technology after father Robert Potter learnt the technology while working for Los Alamos Laboratories.

This flame drill, if it operates as well as it's inventors expect, will drill faster and deeper than conventional drills and they will do so at a cheaper cost.

Cheaper because the expensive bits required by other drills that fracture while trying to dig into rock are not a part of this process. These high end bits, usually diamond tipped, are replaced by heated tips that do not touch the rock surface and that are power by the extreme heats provided by nature or the geothermal influence.

All too much to be true ???

For those interested in the strange and the conspiracy theories then try making a correlation between this and that !!!!
