Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sand Test for Determining the Strength of Detonators
Fulminate of mercury may be considered as a typical example of an initial detonating agent. It is the best known of this class of explosives, and, either alone or mixed with other substances, it forms the charge of most of the commercial detonators or electric detonators used in mining and other engineering operations in this country.
