TITAN 7000
|
TITAN 7000 is a booster sensitive, high performance, repumpable bulk emulsion explosive designed specifically for use in underground construction, quarry and mining operations. Applications include drift and raise development, shaft sinking and tunneling. In addition, other underground mining methods in which TITAN 7000 has proven effective are room and pillar, mechanized cut and fill, vertical crater retreat, uppers retreat, benching and block caving.

Application Recommendations
• The minimum cast booster weight recommended for use as a primer for TITAN 7000 is a 10 gram cast booster @ 5º C (40º F) and above; 90 gram cast booster down to -20º C (-4º F).
• ALWAYS double prime when bulk explosive columns exceed 6 m (20 ft). One primer should be positioned near the bottom of the hole and the second near to the collar.
• ALWAYS ensure primers are in the explosive column.
• ALWAYS consult a Dyno Nobel representative for specific recommendations before designing a TITAN 7000 blasting program involving the use of detonating cord. TITAN 7000 may be used with detonating cord only under special conditions.
• Maximum hole depth is 30 m (100 ft) but special formulations are available for deeper boreholes. Consult your Dyno Nobel representative for details.
