Summary Most existing models of blasting are stress-based and involve many fundamental parameters difficult or impossible to measure in practice. Even a single prediction with such models takes large quantities of computer time, so that calibration becomes a major impediment to their practical use.The model in this paper is based on a simple kinematic approach to modelling muckpile formation. This has the advantage of relative simplicity, while still reflecting the essence of the blasting displacement process. Because of the simple implementation, the model can be calibrated against field data in a straightforward manner and then used for predictions at the same site. The inputs to the model are simply the blast design parameters. The output of the model is a muckpile cross-section, within which contours of diggability or distribution of materials can also be calculated. Case studies have shown that, provided the model is calibrated to the site condition, it will give accurate predictions for altered blast designs. 相似文献

Air gap in an explosive column has long been applied in open-pit blasting as a way of reducing explosive charge, vibration, fly rock and improve fragment size. In conventional blasting a greater amount of explosive energy is lost in the generation of oversize fragments. Oversize fragments reduces loading and hauling efficiencies of equipment which requires secondary blasting. Recurring oscillation of shock waves in the air gap increases the time over which it acts on the adjacent rock mass by factor of 2–5. Top air deck blasting technique trial conducted with an application of gas bags at Chimiwungo pit resulted in an improved fragmentation of about 94 % less than 950 mm. Results obtained from the analysis of muckpile images using split-desktop exhibited that the mean fragment size was 264.81 mm and F20, F80 and top-size were 41.99, 683.18 and 1454.69 mm respectively. Optimum crusher feed size was as large as 1200 mm and crushed down to the 40 mm and only a small percent of the material was above 1200 mm. Gas bag application resulted in a significant reduction in explosives load in production holes without loss in fragmentation or movement of the collar zone. This reduced total cost of charging as compared to conventional blasts with a variance of $20, powder factor was dropped to an average of 0.86 kg/bcm. The technique reduced the cost of bulk blend explosive by 15 %, reduced overall cost of charging per hole by 12 %, enhanced premature ejections. The overall blast results were satisfactory, 443,624 tonnes of blasted material from the block which represented 90 % of the total muckpile material was within 900 mm size. The overall muckpile blasted was well fragmented. 相似文献

Blasting is the primary comminution process in most mining operations. This process involves the highly complex and dynamic interaction between two main components. The first is the detonating explosive and the second is the rock mass into which the explosive is loaded. The mechanical properties of the rock material (such as dynamic strength, tensile strength, dynamic modulus and fracture toughness) are important considerations in understanding the blasting process. However, it is the characteristics of the geological defects (joints, foliation planes, bedding planes) within the rock mass that ultimately determine how effectively a blast performs in terms of fragmentation, all else being equal. The defect characteristics include, but are not limited to, their orientation, spacing, and mechanical properties. During the blasting process, some of the geotechnical characteristics of the rock mass are substantially changed. From the blasting outcome point of view, the most notable and important is the change in fragment size distribution that the rock mass undergoes. The pre-blast in situ defect-bounded block size distribution is transformed into the post-blast muckpile fragment size distribution. Consequently, it is fundamental to our understanding of and ability to predict the blasting process that both the blastability of a rock mass and its transformation into the fragment size distribution can be appropriately quantified. 相似文献

The theoretical explosive energy used in blasting is a common issue in many recent research works (Spathis 1999; Sanchidrian 2003). It is currently admitted that the theoretical available energy of the explosives is split into several parts during a blast:
seismic, kinetic, backbreaks, heave, heat and fragmentation energies. Concerning this last one, the energy devoted to the
breakage and to the creation of blocks within the muckpile can be separated from the microcracking energy which is devoted
to developing new and/or extending existing micro cracks within the blocks (Hamdi et al. 2001; López et al. 2002). In order to investigate these two types of energy, a first and important task is to precisely study the main parameters
characterising the two constitutive elements of the rock mass (rock matrix and discontinuity system). This should provide
useful guidelines for the choice of the blasting parameters (type of explosive, blasting pattern, etc.), in order to finally
control the comminution process. Within the frame of the EU LESS FINES research project, devoted to the control of fines production,
the methodology was developed in order to: (1) characterize the in situ rock mass, by evaluating the density, anisotropy,
interconnectivity and fractal dimension of the discontinuity system and (2) evaluate fragmentation (both micro and macro)
energy spent during the blasting operation. The methodology was applied to three production blasts performed in the Klinthagen
quarry (Sweden) allowing to estimate the part of the fragmentation energy devoted to the formation of muck pile blocks on
one side and to the muckpile blocks microcracking on the other side. 相似文献

In the last decade, fragmentation prediction has been attempted by many researchers in the field of blasting. Kuznetsov developed an equation for the estimation of average fragment size, x 50 , based on explosive energy and powder factors. Cunningham introduced a uniformity index n as a function of drilling accuracy, blast geometry and a rock factor A associated with a “blastability index”, which can be calculated from the jointing, density and hardness of the blasted rock mass. Knowing the mean size and the uniformity index, a Rosin-Rammler distribution equation can then be derived for calculating the fragment size distribution in a blasted muckpile. Analysis of existing data has revealed serious discrepancies between actual and calculated uniformity indices. The current integrated approach combines the Kuznetsov or similar equation and a comminution concept like the Bond Index equation to enable the estimation of both the 50% and 80% passing sizes ( k 50 and k 80 ). By substituting these two passing sizes into the Rosin-Rammler equation, the characteristic size x c and the uniformity index n can be obtained to allow the calculation of various fragment sizes in a given blast. The effectiveness of this new fragmentation prediction approach has been tested using sieved data from small-scale bench blasts, available in the literature. This paper will cover all tested results and a discussion on the discrepancy between measurement and prediction due to possible energy loss during blasting. 相似文献

Excavation of coal, overburden, and mineral deposits by blasting is dominant over the globe to date, although there are certain undesirable effects of blasting which need to be controlled. Blast-induced vibration is one of the major concerns for blast designers as it may lead to structural damage. The empirical method for prediction of blast-induced vibration has been adopted by many researchers in the form of predictor equations. Predictor equations are site specific and indirectly related to physicomechanical and geological properties of rock mass as blast-induced ground vibration is a function of various controllable and uncontrollable parameters. Rock parameters for blasting face and propagation media for blast vibration waves are uncontrollable parameters, whereas blast design parameters like hole diameter, hole depth, column length of explosive charge, total number of blast holes, burden, spacing, explosive charge per delay, total explosive charge in a blasting round, and initiation system are controllable parameters. Optimization of blast design parameters is based on site condition and availability of equipment. Most of the smaller mines have predesigned blasting parameters except explosive charge per delay, total explosive charge, and distance of blast face from surface structures. However, larger opencast mines have variations in blast design parameters for different benches based on strata condition: Multivariate predictor equation is necessary in such case. This paper deals with a case study to establish multivariate predictor equation for Moher and Moher Amlohri Extension opencast mine of India. The multivariate statistical regression approach to establish linear and logarithmic scale relation between variables to predict peak particle velocity (PPV) has been used for this purpose. Blast design has been proposed based on established multivariate regression equation to optimize blast design parameters keeping PPV within legislative limits. 相似文献

Blasting has been the most frequently used method for rock breakage since black powder was first used to fragment rocks, more than two hundred years ago. This paper is an attempt to reassess standard design techniques used in blasting by providing an alternative approach to blast design. The new approach has been termed asymmetric blasting. Based on providing real time rock recognition through the capacity of measurement while drilling (MWD) techniques, asymmetric blasting is an approach to deal with rock properties as they occur in nature, i.e., randomly and asymmetrically spatially distributed. It is well accepted that performance of basic mining operations, such as excavation and crushing rely on a broken rock mass which has been pre conditioned by the blast. By pre-conditioned we mean well fragmented, sufficiently loose and with adequate muckpile profile. These muckpile characteristics affect loading and hauling [1]. The influence of blasting does not end there. Under the Mine to Mill paradigm, blasting has a significant leverage on downstream operations such as crushing and milling. There is a body of evidence that blasting affects mineral liberation [2]. Thus, the importance of blasting has increased from simply fragmenting and loosing the rock mass, to a broader role that encompasses many aspects of mining, which affects the cost of the end product. A new approach is proposed in this paper which facilitates this trend 'to treat non-homogeneous media (rock mass) in a non-homogeneous manner (an asymmetrical pattern) in order to achieve an optimal result (in terms of muckpile size distribution).' It is postulated there are no logical reasons (besides the current lack of means to infer rock mass properties in the blind zones of the bench and onsite precedents) for drilling a regular blast pattern over a rock mass that is inherently heterogeneous. Real and theoretical examples of such a method are presented. 相似文献

Bench blasting has a long tradition and yet the mechanics of throw and muck-pile formation is not clearly understood. This educational paper addresses bench blasting and muck-pile formation in a very simplified manner: a two-block system with ensuing formation of a two-block muckpile is investigated. It will become apparent that the study of a two-block system is perfectly sufficient for a deeper understanding of the problem of the entire bench blast and muck-pile formation. Two approaches will be presented: the momentum or impact approach and the wave propagation approach. The movement of the individual blocks and the formation of a 'two-block muck-pile' will be studied for both approaches and the differences in the results will be discussed. The purpose is to clarify, during blasting and ensuing block movement, the influence of the wave propagation action as compared to a purely gas-pressure based momentum treatment of muckpile formation. The results show that a wave propagation approach may lead to considerably different results for jointed rock mass and for certain combinations of parameters. 相似文献

不耦合装药下爆炸应力波传播规律的试验研究 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
通过室外爆破试验,利用预埋研制的PVDF压力传感器对耦合及水不耦合延长药包装药爆破时爆炸应力波的中远场压力进行测量,拟合实测结果,得到4种不耦合系数下爆炸应力波峰值随传播距离衰减的指数关系式。分析试验结果可知： ①在试验所涉及的范围内,不耦合装药时爆破应力波峰值衰减幅度小于耦合装药（即K =1）时爆破应力波峰值衰减幅度,验证了水介质作为炸药爆轰产物与岩体间的弹性缓冲层作用,减少了粉碎孔壁岩体造成的能量耗散,增加了能量传递,加大了爆炸的作用范围;②当不耦合系数K = 3.29时,应力波峰值衰减指数表现出大于K =1.79及大于K =2.57时应力波峰值衰减指数的趋势,表明过大的不耦合系数造成了不耦合介质--水过多的能量耗散（在高温高压下水并不完全是弹性的）,削弱了不耦合装药爆破的优势;③在不耦合装药爆破中,存在最佳的不耦合系数,此时爆炸应力波峰值衰减最慢,爆炸能得到充分利用,达到最优的爆破效果。研究结果对不耦合装药爆破的设计及工程应用有一定的指导意义。 相似文献

A brief summary of our knowledge of permafrost is presented. The general properties and the thermal regime of permafrost encountered in the Schefferville area are discussed. The factors influencing the occurrence or disappearance of permafrost are discussed individually. Attempts to determine the mechanical and thermal properties of frozen rock materials, with the aim of relating these to geophysical results and to the various blasting responses appear to represent the best approach. In addition to the mapping of topography, drainage patterns, distribution and type of vegetation, snow cover and installation of thermistors, electrical resistivity surveys, borehole geophysical techniques and seismic refraction method are now recognized as important tools in predicting and outlining permafrost zones where blasting and handling procedures of iron ore are very expensive and difficult. Examples and results of such studies carried out on the Timmins 1, Timmins 4, and Fleming 3 deposits are presented. As the mining operations will move northwards into the Timmins, Barney, Goodwood, Leroy and Kivivic groups of deposits, an increasing percentage of the mining activities will be located in permafrost; consequently, it is of the utmost importance to develop a technique permitting a rapid and accurate prediction of permafrost zones in order to reduce prohibitive costs of operation. The delineation of permafrost in a particular deposit has many practical applications such as the demarcation of areas where trenching and test pitting is planned, prediction of ground conditions for test and tonnage drilling, delineation of areas of open cast walls which will be affected by permafrost and consecutive importance in slope design, operational planning of areas where free digging is possible during dirt (overburden) stripping and economic planning of mining operations, particularly with respect to drilling and blasting costs. Additional important applications include the delineation of areas of potential water problems during operations due to the presence of permafrost in the wall rocks and broad outline of the blasting patterns and choice of charge distributions to be used. 相似文献

覆盖层影响下典型地-井模型瞬变电磁法正演 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
地-井瞬变电磁法是用于地质找矿的有效方法之一,开展该方法的三维正演研究能对资料处理与解释提供帮助。在时间域有限差分算法的基础上,建立了三维地质模型和覆盖层模型,模拟了该模型下的地-井瞬变电磁响应;引入了参数EA,分析了方形低阻体和覆盖层的响应特征以及覆盖层影响因素。结果显示：低阻体位于发射场源下方时,其响应曲线呈现“双高一低”的极值特征,高峰值分别对应低阻体上下边界,低峰值对应低阻体中心;低阻体位于发射场源旁边时,其响应曲线呈现单极值特征,该特征与覆盖层响应特征相同。当覆盖层电阻率较低时,“趋肤效应”作用使覆盖层的响应强度强于低阻体;但当发射场源离钻孔足够远时,覆盖层影响可以忽略,低阻体响应强度更与覆盖层-低阻体电阻率的比值有关。孔中发射能有效降低覆盖层影响。 相似文献

A Practical Procedure for the Measurement of Fragmentation by Blasting by Image Analysis 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Summary. The operation of a digital image analysis system in a limestone quarry is described. The calibration of the system, required
in order to obtain moderately reliable fragmentation values, is done from muckpile sieving data by tuning the image analysis
software settings so that the fragmentation curve obtained matches as close as possible the sieving. The sieving data have
also been used to extend the fragment size distribution curves measured to sizes below the system’s optical resolution and
to process the results in terms of fragmented rock, discounting the material coming from a loose overburden (natural fines)
that is cast together with the fragmented rock. Automatic and manual operation modes of the image analysis are compared. The
total fragmentation of a blast is obtained from the analysis of twenty photographs; a criterion for the elimination of outlier
photographs has been adopted using a robust statistic. The limitations of the measurement system due to sampling, image processing
and fines corrections are discussed and the errors estimated whenever possible. An analysis of consistency of the results
based on the known amount of natural fines is made. Blasts with large differences in the amount of fines require a differentiated
treatment, as the fine sizes tend to be the more underestimated in the image analysis as they become more abundant; this has
been accomplished by means of a variable fines adjustment factor. Despite of the unavoidable errors and the large dispersion
always associated with large-scale rock blasting data, the system is sensitive to relative changes in fragmentation. 相似文献

The paper proposes a standardized image-processing procedure with the use of sieve analysis results for calibration which is utilized to measure the size distribution of fragmentation at Sungun mine. Through this procedure, a number of 19 bench blasting in various levels have been initially selected as the target of the study for each, multiple photos were taken immediately after blast from suitable perspectives and locations of the muckpiles surfaces. The number of image sampling was chosen adequately high to achieve further reliability of the whole photography procedure. Then fragments of each muckpile were separately mixed by a loader, where another image sampling from these new muckpiles, bucket of loaders, and haulage trucks was performed. For the purpose of sieve analysis, seven sieves with the mesh sizes between 1.27 cm (0.5 in) and 25.4 cm (10 in) were designed, manufactured, and then installed at Sungun semi-industrial laboratory. Additionally, three mass samples of the mixed fragments were randomly chosen among the 19 muckpiles for sieving. During image analysis stage, “sieve shift” and “mass power” factors, required to obtain standardized size distribution, were precisely assigned when the results obtained by the image analysis software was in accordance with the sieving results. In order to validate the reliability of the image processing, a comparative analysis of the achieved results was made with the results of the original Kuz–Ram model [Cunningham (1983) The Kuz–Ram model for prediction of fragmentation from blasting. In: Proceedings of the first international symposium on rock fragmentation by blasting, Lulea, Sweden, pp 439–454]. Finally, the image-processing procedure was found to be more efficient, with results close-matched to the real results of the sieve analysis. 相似文献

Wall control blasting practices arc necessary to reduce the impact of blasting on mine faces but can also have a significant negative impact on mine productivity and operating costs. The conventional practice in deep open pit mines is to use so-called trim blasts adjacent to pit walls. To provide burden relief these trim blasts have fewer rows than full production blasts and are fired to a cleared free-face: hence they are termed 'unchoked.' This practice leads to scheduling constraints on the pit operations and can cause ore dilution due to excessive muckpile movement. The use of such trim blasts stems from the perception that increased wall damage results from 'choked' blasts. These concerns are based on the unproven assumptions that blast vibration levels and explosive gas penetration increase with increased blast burden and face confinement. This paper describes work undertaken as part of a major investigation into wall control blasting at the KCGM Fimiston Mine, Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. It details a study to assess damage effects due to blast burden. Borehole air pressure measurements and borehole video camera inspections owere done behind a series of single blastholes drilled owith varying burden distances, as owell as behind a dedicated trim blast and a full production blast. It was found that the measured damage effects, including visible rock cracking, dilation, and the limited extent of gas penetration behind the blastholes, did not vary significantly with burden or blast type for the cases tested. This result was in complete agreement with detailed vibration measurements conducted by Blair and Armstrong [1] during the study, which found that vibration was independent of blast burden. As a result of these investigations, changes to the blasting practices at the mine were implemented. Dedicated trim blasts and free-face blasting have been replaced by modified production blasts and the practice of 'choking' blasts has been introduced. This has resulted in a significant improvement in productivity and cost savings without compromising pit wall integrity. 相似文献
