Improvement of the method of drilling and blasting operations at the use of explosive substance «Ukrainite» in underground mining works

Abstract

The object of research is a rock massif of iron ore, which is destroyed by an explosive located in deep wells. One of the most problematic places is ensuring uniform grinding of the rock massif during underground mining of mineral deposits at great depths. In the Kryvyi Rih iron ore basin (Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine) in underground mining let’s use the Ukrainian-made Grammonite 79/21 explosive, which provided an opportunity to obtain high-quality grinding of the ore mass to a depth of 1200 m. With a decrease in mining, these indicators deteriorate significantly, due to the manifestations of rock pressure, which leads to the overcoming of wells and increased specific charge for blasting.
