A system, method, and apparatus for creating core samples, including a core bit; and a high-energy source disposed at a perimeter of the cutting head. That system, method, and apparatus allows removing much less material using much less energy than the current state of the art. A reason for this is that prior attempts tried to accomplish this via drilling just from the surface with a very large device or to send down hole a very large device. This invention makes it feasible to send high energy down hole is a relatively tiny device such as an optical fiber with a laser beam to cut the peripheral part of the hole to remove an intact center core or to bore a very small hole without a center core. With this invention it is feasible to drill a very small hole such as 0.25 inches diameter hundreds of feet through rock, or a 4 inch hole with less than 0.5 inch outer part of the hole being destroyed leaving a core in the center than can be removed. This invention has many more capabilities beyond these.

There is disclosed a device for boring holes in a ground surface comprising: a core barrel having a barrel top and an open barrel bottom, the barrel top having a shaft mounted thereto for engaging with a rotary power source for rotating the core barrel; at least one cutting member mounted to the core barrel at the open barrel bottom; and a pressurised fluid source in fluid communication with the shaft for delivering a supply of pressurised fluid to the shaft; wherein the at least one cutting member is configured such that when it is mounted to the core barrel at the open barrel bottom, the pressurised fluid causes the at least one cutting member to perform a cutting motion to remove the ground surface.

A weed remover for removing weeds comprising a tube comprising a main portion and a bottom portion at a distal end which is insertable into soil to capture a core sample thereof. The tube is formed of a static portion and of a moving portion which complements the static portion to form the tube, wherein the tube comprises an inner diameter smaller at the distal end than in the main portion. At the distal end, the moving portion extends over an angular range from about 90° to about 150° and the static portion extends over a complementary angular range to form a contour. The bottom portion is formed of a succession of projections and recesses around the contour to form a cutting edge.
