Technology developed to drill for oil and gas (among other things) saved the miners in Chile. What saved them was the Center Rock drill bit, developed by
Schramm, Inc. in West Chester, Pennsylvania--historical home ground of America's petroleum industry.
"Seeing the disaster, Center Rock's president, Brandon Fisher, called the Chileans to offer his drill. Chile accepted. The miners are alive."
