Introduction
Initiation Systems
▪ Hybrid detonator technology – Nonel shock tube functionality with
precision of electronic timing
• Eliminates scatter & out of sequence firing
• Standard Nonel style application
• Therefore, no training requirements
▪ Pre-programmed – timing up to 20,000ms
▪ Initial UG application - perimeter control in development mining

Benefits of Improved Perimeter Control
▪ Main aim is to reduce the level of Overbreak in an
operation
▪ This leads to:
• Safer, more stable drive profiles
• Reduction in ground support costs
− Up to $114/metre
• Reduction in cycle times
− Less material movement
- Increase in visible half barrels. Blast typically breaks to as drilled
location
− Ground support cycle times
- 18% reduction in ground support installation
- 37% reduction in scaling times
• Improved ventilation efficiency

Initiation Systems
▪ Additional benefits include:
• Ability to pre-connect blasts
• Continuous scanning of detonator status
• Remote viewing capability
• Full 2 way communications
• Wireless compatible end 2021
• Real time firing line status
• Ability to control pumps and ventilation
• Reduction of misfire rates
Delivery Systems
▪ Varied equipment offering to suit operational requirements
• DynoMiner Advance
• DynoMiner Profile
• DynoMiner MPU
• DynoMiner BPC
DynoMiner Advance & Profile
▪ DynoMiner Advance
• Pneumatically operated unit
• 1t capacity with variable density delivery
• Stand alone unit typically utilised with an IT
▪ DynoMiner Profile
• Provides the ability to charge in all areas: Production (up & down), developments, string loading
• Data logging capability
• Varying tank sizes to suit operational requirements – 1.8t, 3.0t & 4.5t
DynoMiner MPU
▪ Designed specifically for bulk production
environments, the Dynominer MPU has
the following features:
• Variable density delivery & control (0.8-1.25 g/cm3)
• Charged collar heights maintained
• Two variants – Standard & Trident
− String loading capability
• 5.1t – 5.8t emulsion capacity
