This is an EDM 2000 RC drill rig — a proven, high-capacity reverse circulation platform built by Exploration Drill Masters. The rig is offered in rebuild condition at USD $225,000, representing strong value for a drilling contractor or workshop with the capability to complete the reassembly. The MTU 2000 series engine and Sullair 1150/500 compressor have both been professionally rebuilt and are described as being in good, low-hour condition. A dyno report is available for the engine.

Condition
This rig is offered in rebuild condition. It has been stripped for rebuilding and the engine, compressor, and hydraulics have been removed from the rig. All components are available and the engine and compressor have been professionally rebuilt. This is not a turnkey, ready-to-drill rig — it is a project for a buyer with workshop capability. The price reflects this.
A dyno report is available for the rebuilt MTU engine on request.
