In order to overcome these dangers, the Open Cast Projects have been developed. In addition to the advantage of safety, the manpower requirement in these projects is also less as compared to that for the underground mines. Machines only in Open Cast Mines carry out almost total work. The most vital operation in open cast coal mining is blasting.

A device containing a small amount of explosive, a signal transmitter and in some cases a timing mechanism, usually enclosed in a cylindrical metal shell. It is used to initiate less sensitive or secondary explosives. Modern blasting relies on detonators for the safe and precise control of explosive energy release to achieve desired blast outcomes.

4. Contd. Common hole diameters range from 8 to 17.5 in (200-440 mm) and, because adding the heavy drill pipes is cumbersome, most blasthole drillrigs use long masts and pipes to accommodate single-pass drilling of maximum 20 m (65 ft). Electric power is usually chosen for the large rigs, whereas smaller rigs are often powered by …
During the development of the opencast mines, most of the investment goes towards the blasting of the rocks. The blasting can cost at least 5% of the cost of …

1. Introduction. Rock fragmentation distribution influences a range of mining and milling processes including load and haul rates, crushing and grinding performance and ore recovery in beneficiation processes (Michaud et al., 1997).In opencast mining, where blasting is employed for excavation, the overall cost effectiveness of the production …
Major sources of air pollution in open cast mines are drilling, blasting, overburden loading and unloading, material handling and workshops. ... In metal/nonmetal mining operations, the pump should be operated at 1.7 lpm. The 10-mm Dorr-Oliver cyclone separates the oversize dust from the respirable fraction .The oversize dust is …
The open pit or open cast mining method is the obvious choice for a property with a wide area of mineralization exposed or existing close to the surface and continuing to greater depths. The open pit exposes the orebody from the surface by separate removal of ore and associated waste rocks.
Development of a Blast Optimization Model. Selection of proper explosive in any blasting round is an important aspect of optimum blast design. Basic parameters include VOD of explosive (m/s), Density (g/cc), Characteristic impedance, Energy output (cal/gm), and …
Rock benches at the top of the blast-casting area are divided horizontally. The coal seam in the second mining districts inclines from North to South with the dip angle increasing. As a result, the bench height for the blast-casting technique ranges from 35 m to 50 m with the width of the blasting area being 85 m.
The bucket capacity of shovels and dumpers capacities in such mining combination increased to 12.5Cu.m, 15Cu.m, 20Cu.m and Dump trucks of 100Te, 150 Te 170Te, 190Te in our opencast mining ...
Blasting has been one of the most important contributors of mining since the start of mineral extraction and excavation. Along with fragmentation of the rocks, blasting also produces an excess of energy in the form of heat and vibration. Due to the spread of the vibration, the surrounding environment gets affected. Therefore, this paper …
