Quarry drill and blast: a vital first operation ...
2014-11-18 Drilling and blasting is one of the first operations to be carried out in a quarry to gain the material for further processing. The vital process often starts with a detailed survey of the quarry face, which will enable the explosives engineer to design the blast and to plot where the shot holes should be drilled, enabling the task to be carried out safely and efficiently.

Fact Sheet 5 Principles of stone extraction
2008-11-20 In all stone quarry situations the extraction phase is based on one or combinations of three fundamental principles: 1. Levering; expanding open fractures by inserting levers, crowbars or stones 2. Splitting; creating fractures, preferable planar, by strokes (i.e. sledge hammer), wedging; heating or blasting with explosives 3.

2014-6-11 The only way to evaluate accurately the cost of explosives, is to examine the effects of blasting and to determine the optimum degree of fragmentation. In most cases, the productivity rate is influenced by the degree of fragmentation. To obtain well-fragmented rock by blasting, explosive energy must be well distributed throughout the rock.

If a quarry plans to use 30-foot bench heights with 7 feet of sub-drill, a drill rig with 25-foot-long steels may not be a good choice, because two steels will be required to complete one hole. Metal mines generally use 50-foot bench heights, for which steels of 30-foot length make sense.
