Drilling and Mineral Applications
When most people think of mining, they often picture diamonds, gold, or oil. While these materials are valuable, they represent only a small part of the global mining industry. Many essential resources that support everyday life and industrial production come from mining operations that are far less visible but equally important.
Commonly mined materials include:
- Limestone – used in construction, cement production, and steel manufacturing.
- Iron – a critical component in infrastructure, machinery, and countless industrial applications.
- Potash – a key ingredient in fertilizers that supports agricultural productivity.
- Coal – used for power generation and in various industrial processes.
- Crushed rock – essential for road construction, building foundations, and landscaping projects.
Helicopter support helps make the extraction and transport of these materials more efficient, particularly in areas where overland access is limited or infrastructure is still in development.
Helicopter Support for Exploration and Site Preparation
Before mining operations can begin, exploration teams must identify and evaluate potential resource deposits. Helicopter support plays a vital role in every stage of this process, from aerial surveying to equipment delivery and site setup. Fair Lifts coordinates access to experienced operators who specialize in light-lift, long-line, and logistical missions that make pre-drilling and early-stage mining work safer and more efficient.

Aerial Surveying & Data Collection
Accurate data is the foundation of every successful mining operation. Helicopters are ideal platforms for aerial surveying and geophysical mapping, offering speed, maneuverability, and the ability to cover vast areas efficiently. They can be equipped with specialized sensors and instruments, including magnetometers, electromagnetic detection systems, and spectrometers, to identify geological patterns and mineral concentrations below the surface.
On-Demand and Emergency Helicopter Access
In the mining industry, having immediate access to helicopter support is essential. Rapid aerial response can make a critical difference during emergencies, ensuring that injured personnel or vital resources reach their destinations without delay. Fair Lifts coordinates reliable helicopter services that provide both scheduled and on-demand access for emergency transport, equipment delivery, and ongoing operational support.
