Today, we celebrate International Driller’s Day, a moment to highlight the skill, dedication, and resilience of drillers across our company and industry.

This date also holds special meaning for our Explomin Perforaciones team, marking the anniversary of their very first day of drilling in 2001, the beginning of a journey built on hard work and expertise throughout Peru.

To all drillers across our global operations and beyond, thank you for the work you do every day to move our industry forward.

After more than five decades in the field, Chris Edwards has officially stepped into retirement. Chris joined Major Drilling Canada in 2004, and aside from a brief time away, he chose to close out his extraordinary 50+ year career with us. He brought a depth of experience, humility, and pride in the craft that left a mark wherever he worked; especially across the Yukon and northern Canada.

Ian Wilson, Regional Manager, Western Canada, said, “Our industry doesn’t see many careers like this anymore—long, honest, and earned one shift at a time. There are a lot of drillers out there today doing things the right way because Chris showed them how.”

Thank you, Chris, for the legacy you leave behind and the many drillers who are better because of you. We wish you all the best in retirement!

Major Drilling was proud to hit the ice in Sudbury for this year's PEO Charity Hockey Tournament with members of our team skating alongside clients, partners and local peers for a cause that matters.

While the competition was fierce, the best part is always the community behind it, and knowing that 100% of funds raised supports Northern Ontario Families of Children with Cancer.

Major Drilling Mongolia was honoured to be part of Oyu Tolgoi’s recent Draw Bell Firing event. Our Underground Supervisor, Munkhbaatar (Muugii), represented Major Drilling; a well‑deserved recognition of his long‑standing dedication since joining the company in 2005 and his role in drilling the first underground hole, UGD1.

The event also highlighted our strong partnership with Oyu Tolgoi, celebrating 20+ years of collaboration and the successful completion of 1,000+ UGD holes and 300+ additional specialized holes.

A proud moment for Muugii and the entire Major Drilling team!
