The '''EM-120 Auger''' is a piece of heavy mining machinery utilised by [[human]]ity, and presumably a predecessor to [[JOTUN Heavy Industries]]' [[EM-240 Neides auger|EM-240 Neides]] model. They are used by the [[BXR Mining Corporation]] for deep space mining operations on airless bodies such as asteroids.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Saturn|Halo: Saturn Devouring His Son}}

The EM-120 is considered by its operators to be "''a miner's best friend''"; strong enough to break through sections of rocky, hardened crust and also delicate enough to make precise cuts in and around volatile or valuable material.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}}

In [[2556]], several EM-120s were in use by BXR at [[Site 22]] near the asteroid [[LV-31]] when the operation uncovered the hull of a [[Forerunner starship]] buried under the rock. All augers within half a kilometre of the find were shut down while [[IMC hazmat corps]] teams were dispatched to investigate, though the others remained online. Ultimately, all were destroyed by the [[nuclear weapon]]s bombardment fired from {{UNSCShip|Saturn}}, following the [[Outbreak at Site 22|release]] of the [[Flood]] interred within the asteroid.{{Ref/Reuse|Saturn}}
