Abstract

The authors examined the application of precise millisecond delay electric blasting at a well-known Vermont quarry. The paper explains how the use of a new high-accuracy electric delay detonator has improved fragmentation, raised productivity 10%, simplified blast design, and increased the ability to predict results from blasting.
