A geopenetrator system is provided comprising an earth boring drill which is particularly adapted to be employed to perform a drilling operation under temperature conditions and at depths wherein ordinary drilling devices are inoperable. The drill includes a penetrator head, an extendible pipe casing means operable in the nature of a shaft which is connected at one end to the penetrator head and is capable of being extended so as to have a length sufficient to reach the surface of the hole being drilled, and power means operatively connected to the penetrator head for supplying the power thereto required thereby to perform the drilling operation. The penetrator head includes a housing, a forerunner, energy transmitting means, and means operable for purposes of causing withdrawal of the drill from a hole. The housing is composed of an upper feed casing and a lower feed casing which is operatively connected at one end to the upper feed casing and at the other end to the forerunner. The upper feed casing of the housing is in turn operatively connected to one end of the extendible pipe casing, i.e., shaft, the other end of which extends to the surface of the drilled hole. The circumference of the upper feed casing at the point of connection with the lower end of the shaft is greater than that of the shaft. As a result, there is an over lock established at the point of connection between the lower end of the shaft and the upper end of the housing which is operable to inhibit the passage of volumes of liquids and gases trapped below the surface of the earth up the drilled hole which in turn if permitted to flow up the drilled hole could pose a potential hazard to personnel working on the drilling rig. Preferably, the shaft at spaced intervals along the length thereof is provided with a multiplicity of sets of outwardly extending members embodying a configuration which is similar in nature to that of skis. Each set preferably consists of three skis projecting radially outwardly from the outer surface of the shaft and being movable between a retracted position and an extended position wherein the free end of each ski engages the sidewall of the drilled hole in substantially equally spaced relation around the circumference thereof whereby the weight of the shaft is at least partially supported by means of the interengagement of the skis with the sidewalls of the hole. The energy transmitting means extends down the shaft and through substantially the center of the housing, and includes an electrode connected at one end to the forerunner and at the other end to the power means. The electrode, at least a portion thereof which is surrounded by insulation thereby to be insulated from the housing, is operable to heat the forerunner to a temperature wherein the latter becomes molten. The housing of the penetrator head is provided with slag escape means operable to permit the escape of the slag formed during the drilling operation. The means for causing withdrawal of the drill includes a longitudinally extending opening formed in the upper feed casing through which pressure is capable of being applied to cause the drill to be withdrawn by being pushed back to the top of the hole.
