About this document
Electronic vs Non-Electronic Detonators by Yan Romulo Ribeiro Oliveira is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes research conducted on electronic detonators and blast hole loading techniques at the Martha Hill Gold Mine in New Zealand from 2001-2011. It discusses how introducing electronic detonators improved mining production rates and reduced vibration levels, oversize rock, and the number of blasting events needed. Later research tested the accuracy of different electronic detonator brands and investigated how simple changes to blast hole loading techniques could further reduce vibration. T
