Changes in the blasting techniques during recent years in Poland
- AGH – University of Science and Technology
Abstract
Poland is a country that is rich in mineral resources. Many of them are extracted with the help of blasting technologies both in underground and open pit mining. The article presents changes and trends in the development of blasting technologies in recent years in Poland. Particular attention is paid to the emergence on the market of business entities specializing in the provision of services for blasting in mines, as well as the mechanization of blasting operations and the development of modern technologies for the production of explosives. In addition, the article highlights the practice of open-pit mining to prevent the harmful effects of blasting on the environment. In addition, various methods of blasting development and the use of computer programs on these issues are presented.
