It has been hypothesized that fragmentation is improved in areas between blastholes where the tensile waves meet, overlap and interact. An improved fragmentation can, in turn, result in reduced costs for both blasting and transportation of the blasted rock, improved environmental aspects, and reductions in energy consumption during crushing and grinding of the blasted rock, as ...
The application of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to investigate the distribution of moisture in materials has not normally been applied to iron ores due to the magnetic properties of iron. However recent test work on blast hole chip samples of iron ore using the very low field Helios system has shown that it is possible to obtain useful information on moisture content. The key to obtaining ...
Recent incidents have occurred in several open cut coal mines where flammable and toxic gases (NOx, SOx, CH4, CO, CO2 and H2S) have been found in areas where normal mining activities are being undertaken. Flammable and toxic gases have been found emitting from blast holes, post blast areas and strata, including spoil dumps and accumulating in the bottom of pits during temperature inversion ...
Blast hole drill rigs are used to drill Blast holes into high benches in large quarries and open pit mines. They are designed for very high production rates, and as such are often powered by large diesel engines whose exhaust systems can become dangerously hot. Kalb Corporation was approached by a mining OEM to remedy this situation by providing a durable exhaust insulation system for their ...
The present case study pertains to the analysis of the use of stemming plug and its effect on fragmentation and muckpile shape parameters in a solid bench of a limestone quarry located in the Philippines. The quarry had major problems of improper fragmentation, back break and poor heave characteristics of the muckpile. The presence of fractures and fissures particularly in the top portion of the ...
Most existing blast vibration models are designed for far-field vibration using a single seed wave to represent each blasthole within a blast for a point of interest and do not simulate wave shape change over the distance. ...
The process of drilling, in general, always produces sound as a by-product. Sound is used as a diagnostic tool for identification of faulty components in the mechanical industry. However, its application in the mining industry for estimating rock properties has not been much explored. Knowledge of rock properties is essential for mine planning and design. An attempt has been made in this paper to ...
Extraction of locked-up coal pillars by opencast method and the presence of dwellings in proximity to excavation area lead to specialised drilling and blasting plan for safety of structures and humans. Introduction of improper bench layout, mismatched drilling equipment and blast geometry enhances discomfort for local inhabitants. Blast-induced vibration magnitude also shows poor attenuation rate ...
