The invention relates to the technical field of rock drilling, and discloses a pressure-maintaining
coring device and a
coring method for resource exploration sampling. The pressure-maintaining
coring device comprises an outer cylinder, a
drill bit installed at the end of the outer cylinder, an inner cylinder installed in the outer cylinder and a differential joint; a high-pressure
air chamber, a fixed plug, a compensation cabin, a floating
piston, a
rock core cavity, a
ball valve and a closed liquid plug are sequentially arranged in the inner cylinder in the direction of the
drill bit. The temperature
detector and the driver are arranged on the fixing plug at the exhaust end of the high-pressure
air chamber, in the
rock core recovery process, for the situation that the
internal pressure of a
rock core cavity is changed due to external temperature change, the temperature
detector triggers the driver after detecting the temperature change, the driver drives the baffle to move, and then the volume of the compensation cabin is changed; finally, the pressure in the rock core cavity can be changed, the pressure change caused by the temperature can be neutralized, the pressure in the rock core cavity is always kept stable, the preservation effect of the rock core is improved, and the subsequent rock core analysis result is more accurate.
