This book enriches the readers with the advances in rock blasting techniques for mining and civil construction rock excavation projects, including the need for and importance of rock blasting, related theories, challenges in rock blasting operations, and rock blasting methodology for excavation of coal and overburden benches of opencast coal mines. It also discusses methods to estimate charge factors and dimensional parameters for different rock types of iron ore mines, blasting methodology for rock strata and the blasting technologies for civil construction projects.

The book:

Provides comprehensive review of the prediction methodologies of blasting results.

Reviews insights into advanced blasting methodologies for rock excavation near sensitive structures.

Includes case studies of coal mining, iron ore mining, limestone mining and civil construction projects.

Explores the detailed theoretical background of rock blasting.

Discusses methodologies of secondary blasting.

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in mining, geotechnical, and rock engineering.

This book presents the principles and practices of rock blasting for underground hard rock mining. It covers a theoretical background of the rock blasting technology and comprehensive case studies on different stages of rock blasting for underground metalliferous mining. It includes the discussions on burn-cut face blasting pattern, slot raise excavation methodology, and ring blasting methods. It further discusses different practical challenges associated with underground blasting, viz. ore dilution, ground vibration, wall instability, etc., and their possible solutions. The book also covers the recent advancements in methodologies to predict blasting outcomes and instrumentations for monitoring rock blasting operations. The book is a useful reference for rock blasting practitioners, mining engineers, professionals, and researchers. It is also a valuable reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students.
