Conference Proceedings
EXPLO 2001
The highly successful Explo 2001 conference was an
update on the 'state-of-the-art' in the utilisation of explosives in the
minerals industry. The theme of the 2001 conference of the respected Explo
series was 'today, tomorrow and round the corner'. The Explo 2001 Proceedings
Volume includes all of the papers which discuss findings, theories and
directions the industry is progressing and would be of vital interest to
personnel from many facets of both the minerals industry blasters, suppliers,
academics. researchers etc. Explo 2001 reviewed the tools and techniques
developed over many years and their application to deliver cost-effective
results, to improve safety and reduce the risk of financial loss. The volume
reports on recent innovations, discoveries and results and previews the
potential beyond today's science, considering what is around the corner; what
new theories are being addressed and what researchers are working on.
