Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 5m 11d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 30/12/15 10:21 AM Share Posted 30/12/15 10:21 AM ^^ what he said. Tungsten also gets used a lot for core sampling of some pretty hard stuff. I'll let the geologist describe what stuff it actually is.If they need tungsten to core it, we need to make it explode before we excavate it.
