ROYEX GENERAL OPERATIONS
General Operation
- Pre-defined sequentially timed blasting patterns are possible via shock tube or electric initiators
- The Modular initiation system allows for customized timings and loading patterns
- Continuous blasting is possible
- Good fragmentation control
- Greatly increased operational and handling safety
- No explosives are present at work site
- Transportation, storage and general logistical control minimized by the product's 1.4S rating
- Air shipping allows for faster deliveries and relaxes stock requirements
- In EU, P2 classified product, no track and trace management required
CIVIL ENGINEERING
- 1.4S timing solution and smoother breaking allows for greatly reduced vibration levels and precision blasting close to infrastructure
- Low compromise on traditional drilling patterns
- Timing and simplified design of shock tube connection speeds up preparation of blast
- Less fly rock - significantly lower risk for damage
Quarrying
- Continuous mining possibilities. Optional configurations using the timing initiation system allow for multiple decking
- Extended pit boundaries due to no vibration, no fly rock and less dust during blasting operations - prolonged pit lifetime
- Reduced fly rock
- High precision breaking for dimensional quarries, less wire sawing or downstream cutting
- Reduced safety distances for machinery and personnel
- No track and trace required
- Complete 1.4S solution - less demanding storage, transport and product
PRODUCTION BLASTING
AND TUNNELING
- Proven reduced dilution in gold, platinum and diamond mining
- Continuous mining possibilities
- Oxygen balanced - no noxious gases, rapid re-entry
- Slyping and secondary blasting operations can take place during shift
- Viable alternative for secondary blasting in block caving
- No crush zone around holes after blasting, thereby reducing fines and dust while improving recovery rates
- Improves hanging wall conditions thereby improving safety
- No throw leads to easier and quicker cleaning, less damage to support, no need for blasting barricades in narrow reef mining operations
