Underwater Drilling and Blasting for Hard Rock Dredging
2015-1-1 Underwater drilling and blasting was used for about 25,000 m 3 of hard rock dredging during construction of a Second Liquid Chemical Berth by Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT), Mumbai. The rock formation at the site mainly consists of basalt with compressive strengths varying between 16.04 MPa and 37.96 MPa. The average depth of required excavation was ...

In the fluorspar mines in Illinois, 1 to 2 m (3 to 6 ft) wide vugs commonly occurred in heading round faces. When the vugs extended the full depth of the round, drill pattern and timing sequence were modified to

A Numerical Study on Extent of Crushed Zone Around ...
2018-8-31 The blast pattern design was based on the extent of crushed and fractured zone. It was shown that the size of crushed zone was in proportion to the energy spent in the loading rate. In this work, a finite element tool LS-DYNA (LS DYNA R9 2016) was used to model the crushed and fracture zones in rock-mass.

In this study, the plaster stemming application for blasting at a basalt quarry is studied. Drill cuttings are generally used in open pits and quarries as the most common stemming material since these are most readily available at blast sites. However, dry drill cuttings eject very easily from blastholes without offering much resistance to blast energy.

(11,300 kg) of pull-down, preferably with single-pass capabilities (no addition of drill pipe). By using a table drive rather than a tophead drive rotation mechanism, a lighter weight tower can be used, thereby lowering the center of gravity and ...
