MULI DIRECTIONAL DRILL HEADS

Another question : I was recently awed as I watched a local company in my comunity install a gas line underground, from one side of a road across to the other side and continue another 100 feet or so and pop up just outside the building being serviced. This I know was done through limestone that lies only about a foot below surface. One of the guys on the job told me they can drill around corners etc with this device. Got me to thinking if this type of directional drilling is done or can be done at our beloved McFaulds Lake area. I would think that once you have drilled to certain depths and made positive mineralization findings could you not drill out laterally in a fan shape to distinguish direction of mineralized veins or stuctures without having to go back to surface so often to redrill at different angles or stepouts. Hopefully again the more knowledgeable posters on this forum can discuss this topic. Thanks in advance and GLTA the deputy
