GEOLOGICAL EFFECTS
Blasting results are influenced more by rock properties than explosive properties.
Rock properties:
♦ Rock Structure:
• Smaller drill pattern minimize the adverse effects of bedding and fractures but
• Explosives with high gas production (ANFO) are appropriate for highly jointed or
fractured rock.
• The orientation of the free face to the joints sets is also a key consideration for
♦ Water
• Static water
• Dynamic water
• Multiple priming is advised in wet blast hole
Dipping seams of factures into pit: Dipping seams into rockmass:
• unstable walls • unbroken toe
• excessive backbreak • overhang potential

Water resistance
Chemical stability
Fume characteristics
Bulk ANFO :
Zero Oxygen Balance = 94.3% AN + 5.7% FO
• Over fuel mix, example: 92% AN + 8% FO
Prod. 6% less energy CO
• Under fuel mix, example: 96% AN + 4% FO
Prod. 18% less energy NO2
Increase sensitivity
• It’s generally better to over fuel ANFO rather than under fuel
it.
Primers:
• Primer diameter should closely match hole dia.
• Two primers are recommended for blasthole over 15 meters
deep [ANFO] & 10 meters deep [Emulsion Blend].

SURFACE BLASTING GEOMETRY
BENCH HEIGHT
If the height is not predetermined :
BH (m) >> Blasthole Dia. (mm) / 15
BLASTHOLE DIAMETER
To achieve excellent energy distribution :
DIA (mm) = Bench Height (m) x 8
If charge diameter is less than the blast hole diameter, the “decoupling
effect” must be taken into account.
As blasthole diameters increase the cost of drilling, loading & explosive
generally decrease.
Smaller blast holes distribute the explosive energy better than large
blast holes.
BURDEN
Burden (m) are normally equal the charge diameter (mm) x (20 – 35).
Initial Burden Estimation Guide (see table)
Explosive Density x 2
+ 1.8 x Explosive Diameter
Rock Density
Burden (m) = 84
SPACING
Normally ranges from (1 to 1.8) x Burden
Optimum energy distribution:
S= 1.15 x B
Pattern is laid outin “Staggered”
SUBDRILLING
Normally ranges from ( 0.3 to 0.5 ) x Burden
or ranges from (8 – 12) x Hole diameter
to much Sub drilling produces “ E xcessive
G round Vibration”
L ess Sub drilling produces “ E xcessive toe”
To improve fragmentation the blast hole primer
should be placed at grade level.
DECKING/AIRDECKING
Minimum decking for dry holes:
Deck = hole diameterx 6
Minimum decking for wet holes:
Deck = hole diameterx 12
A ir decking can reduce the amount of explosives
to achieve good results by efficiently utilising
the available explosive energy.

To calculate the relative confinement find the value that represents the stem length and charge diameter. Next
divide the value by the absolute bulk strenght of the explosives. For example, with a charge diameter of 150 mm
and a stem length of 4 m the corresponding value = 6200. Assuming that ANFO with an ABS of 3200 is the
explosives used, the relative cinfinement will equal 6200 divided by by 3200 or 1.94. Generally if the relative
confinement is greater than 1.4 the cinfinement will be adequate if the value is less than 1.4 flyrock and steming
ejection may occur.

♦ P UR P OS E
• The blast’s performance will be reduced if the explosive has too little or too
much delay time.
• Delay sequencing will not overcome improper blast design (confinement, energy
distribution large toe, etc.).
♦ F R A GM E NT A T I ON R E QUI R E D
• Optimum fragmentation in massive rock occurs when one hole is detonated per
delay and the the delay between holes in a row is – 40 ms.
• The delay between rows should be at least 2 to 3 times the delay between
holes in a row.
♦ MUCKPILE DISPLACEMENT
• Short delay intervals (<25 ms) between holes in a row reduce fragmentation
but improve displacement.
• Longer delay intervals (> 100 ms) are required between rows to maximize
displacement.
• The type of excavator will often determine the degree of displacement
required which will dictate the delay interval between rows of blast holes.
♦ WALL CONTROL
• To short of delay intervals between holes in a row and between rows can cause excessive
over break.
• If the delay between blast holes in the back row is less than 42 ms, the charges can act
together to damage the back wall.
• Too short of delay interval between rows (<35 ms) can promote back break due to over
confinement.

• Select the time between holes in a row based on one third to one half the
considerations.
• Delay intervals between rows less than 6 ms per of burden can cause
• Multiple row blast (> 4 rows) use longer intervals in back rows.
• Bottom delay has generally the shortest delay and delay between decks in
