The grease composition preferably has in the range of from 1 to 20 percent by weight polyisobutylene, in the range of from 50 to 90 percent by weight ethylene-alphaolefin, up to approximately 40 percent by weight polyalphaolefin and in the range of from 4 to 45 percent by weight lubricant additives. For best lubrication in the severe environment of a rock bit bearing, the absolute viscosity of the composition is greater than about 100,000 centipoise at a temperature of approximately 70°F, and at a shear rate less than about 40 seconds-1.
