The blasting expertise of BME's AXXIS™ Product Support and Global Blasting Technical Services (GBTS), together with the drill and blast team at an open-cut metallurgical coal mine, successfully implemented complex pit design changes. This collaboration enabled the adoption of a more efficient blasting method, significantly enhancing operational efficiency. This project was essential to overcome the limitations on excavation caused by the previous bench design philosophy implemented. Difficult geology in the lower 20m of the blast bench also contributed to poor fragmentation results, which further impeded performance.
