Comparison of Some Rock Hardness Scales Applied in ...
2012-4-25u2002·u2002In this paper, the influence of hardness of rock material on drilling rate has been studied. During the research, eight various rock types were subjected to drilling and hardness tests such as; Mohs hardness, Indentation Hardness Index (IHI) and L-type Schmidt hammer. Mean Mohs hardness of each rock was calculated based on the hardness of contained minerals and other two scales are carried out ...
