Post Blast Effect (Coal mining)

When using the Tulips there is much less ore contamination. In the case of coal mining it reduces hard rock capping on the coal as well as coal damage below the blast holes.

 

In coal mining we have assisted  clients to selectiely mine thin layers of undisturbed high grade coal. This would not be possible with the conventional way of blasting.

 

 

When blasting coal seams and 'parting' simultaneously - conventional blasting would cause high levels of contamination.

 

The 'tulip' plugs prevent this vertiical contamination from taking place.

 

When blasting coal with tulip plugs we approximately halve the explosives conventionally used which vastly reduces the fines.
