As the drill bit rotates and hits the ground
Explanation:
"Barreno" has different meanings in the mining business in different countries in South America. It usually means hole, but in Peru, for example, it means bit. It is the bit the one that rotates and hits the ground to break the rock. So, your whole sentence there could be: "As the drill bit rotates and hits the ground, it breaks the rock apart"

agree  philgoddard: This is a good translation. You could say "percussion drill" to make it clearer.
