Blasting is a crucial technique in mining, construction, and the excavation of pipelines in hard rock environments, as it uses controlled explosions to fracture and dislodge rock, making the removal process significantly easier and more efficient. It helps access ore deposits, clear rock for foundations and tunnels, and create trenches for pipelines, reducing labour, equipment wear, and costs while enhancing safety by precisely controlling rock breakage.
