Accelerate block cave development with WebGen™.
WebGen™ wireless initiation technology enables pre-charging of blast rings in the undercut level without physical connections, allowing for streamlined cave development and improved operational safety.
Reduced development cycle times
By pre-loading blast rings with WebGen™ primers in the undercut level, operations can eliminate the need for ground stabilisation and redrilling. This wireless capability enables advanced ring preparation without re-entry, reducing delays and exposure to unstable ground conditions.
Improved cave draw reliability
Wireless initiation allows for precise, timely firing of undercut blasts, minimising seismic-induced delays and maintaining consistent drawpoint performance. The system supports uninterrupted cave propagation by reducing blast-related disruptions.
Optimised resource utilisation
WebGen™ eliminates the need for physical tie-ins, reducing manual labour and simplifying blast setup. This accelerates the rate of advance and enables redeployment of personnel to higher-value tasks.
Enhanced safety in pre-charging operations
Wireless pre-charging removes the requirement for personnel to work near the rill or brow, significantly lowering exposure to geotechnical hazards. It also mitigates the operational impact of brow loss, improving overall stope stability and safety.
