 1. DRILLING
Jumbo machines are used to drill the
holes where the explosives will be
charged subsequently.
2. EXPLOSIVE CHARGING
The boreholes are charged with
cartridge or bulk explosives, although
the latter is considered to be more
efficient as it makes the most effective
use of the energy from the blast.
 3. BLASTING
The blasting is typically triggered
sequentially in order to ensure the
optimal fragmentation of the rock, as
well as to ensure the resulting vibrations
do not compromise the integrity of the
surrounding structures.
4. VENTILATION
These explotions create toxic gases,
which make ventilation a vital step.
Adequate ventilation can be
achieved with pressurized jets of air.
5. MUCKING & SCALING

It consists of three steps: loading and

hauling the muck, and final transport
out of the worksite. Shovels and
dump trucks specifically designed
to operate underground are used to
carry out this work, alongside
scaling machines that remove
any loosened rock.
6. SUPPORT: SHOTCRETE & BOLTING

Depending on the site’s characteristics,

the tunel support can be either light or
heavy-duty, and combines shotcrete
alongside bolts and steel mesh.
The use of bolts and metal sheets will
normally be dictated by the geo-
mechanic behaviour of the site. Often,
these can be used alongside shotcrete for
greater protection against corrosion.
