Abstract
Detonating cord cutting is widespread in dimension stone extraction, especially in the case of hard, abrasive stones as granites, an important resource for Italian industry. General data on this production sector are briefly discussed and analyzed in the first part of the paper. The theoretical basis of operation are summarized, and compared to data obtained from selected commercial cases, in the second part.
