Blasting has four objectives: to loosen in-situ rock from a quarry face, reduce block size for processing by crushers, to excavate and load the blast pile and to leave a stable face afterwards. Efficient blasting also reduces fines and oversize and the fragmentation of the blast pile is designed to match the loading equipment and crushers.

Pit & Quarry's "Overcoming Oversize" series will discuss the generation of oversize in the blasting process and techniques to reduce or eliminate oversize.Next month's article will discuss oversize as a result of insufficient bench dimensions and how to optimize stiffness ratio for a reduction in oversize.

limestone openpit quarry plant. Open pit quarrying is a common technic of producing limestone and is typically much more economical than underground mining methods. Many open pit quarry operations are simply hillside cuts or open pit type quarries. Controlled blasting at the quarry face is used to break the rocks into pieces.

A series of bench blasting productive tests were conducted in Heishan coal mine in Xinjiang, China. The rock mass of the quarry is slightly weathered sandstone, the saturation moisture compressive strength is 24–42 MPa, and the natural density is 2.41–2.69 g/cm 3.The blasthole diameter used in the previous blasts is 138 mm, and the use of small holes leads to a large number of holes …

Phase 3: Increase blast size To reduce drill rig movements, and therefore cost, blast size is critical at this quarry. It was determined that the number of rows and the number of holes per row should, if possible, be increased. Typically, this resulted in blasts with three rows of 13 holes and included one blast with seven rows of 10 holes.

Minimizing Off Site Blast Effects. By using site-specific seismic modeling that determined optimum firing sequences on a shot by shot basis, off-site vibration effects were minimized and additional gains in overall blast efficiency led to better fragmentation, faster truck cycle times, reduced oversize, increased pattern geometry, elimination of decking and the ability to increase shot size.

Minimising the perimeter of the blasting polygon for the same amount of quarried material can be a very effective way of reducing the number and size of the oversized blocks generated by blasting. The solution is to increase the size of the blasting polygon as much as possible and to design polygons with regular (as close as possible to ...
