I think I figgered it out...  This is a small shot to start a new ramp in the bottom of a pit...This is one of my favorite type shots. You began with a flat floor and it makes a small hill.  Looks small in the video but thats an area of around 200' by 300' deepest hole was 25' and shortest was 12'. Close to 10,000lbs. of kaboom juice. 
This is a BIG ONE......Note the orange color on the bench above...Thats a large drill for some scale.

I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.

You have one of the greatest man-jobs out there. I hope your business will continue to pick up and keep you working steadily.

Takes roughly 1 week to drill with 2 drills and I with my crew and another Blaster to help load holes usually can shoot a shot like the big one by 2 pm..... If all goes well!! They are shot with electronic caps that requires each cap be programed to a specific time...That alone takes me about an hour and half. The cost for a shot that size is around 18 to 20 grand for our part and probably about the same for the drilling. |
