Basics of mineral resources for cement production

If, after primary blasting, the limestone boulder size is larger than the crusher feed size, there could be a need for secondary blasting or mechanical size reduction of the biggest boulders. The run-of-mine material, after blasting, is transported to the crusher. Mining and haul-age operations are generally monitored by. a.

Blast Vibration and Fragmentation Control at Heavily Jointed Limestone Mine

The rock excavation practice incorporates proper drilling and blasting as one of the most significant aspects. However, the generation of uncontrolled cracks and micro-cracks in post-blast opening geometry are some of the major disadvantages of drilling and blasting (Singh et al. 2014, 2015). Geological discontinuities are an integral part of rock …
