Abstract
ORICA products are widely known in the global market of industrial explosives consumers. Currently, the company has plants in 30 countries of the world, which produce various types of granular (ANFO) and emulsion (POWERGEL) explosives, as well as non-electric EXEL blasting systems. In May 1999, a group of specialists in the field of blasting from the Republic of Kazakhstan left for Turkey to conduct acceptance tests of industrial explosives of ORICA company, which are widely used in Kazakhstan since 1995 in underground and surface mining of mineral resources, blasting with boreholes and wells in weak, medium- hard and tough rocks, in dry and water-filled boreholes and wells. The annual consumption of explosives is about 10,000 tons.
