Remote secondary blasting solution.

Oversize material can render up to 30 per cent of drawpoints inaccessible, creating significant operational bottlenecks in block cave and sublevel cave mining. Orica’s remote secondary breakage solution addresses this challenge by enabling safe, efficient remote drilling and charging of up to eight holes using WebGen™ wireless technology. Developed in collaboration with leading equipment manufacturers, the solution removes personnel from hazardous zones, reduces downtime, and helps restore production faster.
