The drill bit is threaded onto the core barrel and attached onto a bottom of a hollow drill rod string. Because of the opening at the end of the diamond bit (Fig. ) it cuts a cylindrical shaped solid column of rock, called drill core, (Fig. ) which moves up into the tubular drill rod (pipe) as drilling progresses of the drill bits includes a core lifter assembly which ...

Conventional mine shaft sinking methods involve the performance of a cycle of different operations—drilling and blasting, removal of smoke and cleaning of flyrock lodged on overhead timbers, mucking and hoisting of the broken rock, and timbering. The latter (a) may be the last operation of the cycle, (b) may be carried on during drilling and mucking, provided it is done from a substantial ...

In surface mining, excavation and cutting equipment can dig soft weathered ore with high productivity. However, above a certain level of rock hardness and competence, the productivity of excavation equipment is reduced significantly and therefore blasting is required to extract the ore more efficiently (Scott, 2009).Rock blasting in hard rock mining and quarrying is in a sense the first stage ...
