Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the effect of stemming on the efficiency of explosives. Stemming is a material used to confine an explosive in a drill hole and increase its power. The author, a prominent expert in mining safety, conducted a series of experiments using various types of explosives and stemming materials to determine the optimal combination for maximum effectiveness and safety. The results of these experiments, presented in clear and accessible language, provide valuable insights for miners, engineers, and anyone interested in the safe and efficient use of explosives in mining and other industries. The book not only offers practical guidance but also contributes to the broader understanding of explosive behavior and its applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
