For this purpose, drilling rates on different natural stone of diamond bit which mounted to a laboratory scale core drilling machine were determined. Later, relationships between mechanical properties and penetration rates of natural stones were investigated and interpreted. As a result, this study has demonstrated that to estimate penetration rates of natural stones, it would be appropriate to consider several characteristics.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDrillabilitypenetration ratenatural stonemarbledrilling ratedrillabilityArticle62382387N/AWOS:000287940100016N/A
