Quarry Blasting

Quarry managers have a one-on-one relationship with their RedBull shotfirer, who in turn gains valuable, site-specific experience. Best blasting results are achieved through an understanding of quarry rock formations to optimise blast fragmentation for that particular quarry.

RedBull’s supervisor arranges all logistics and drill rig supply to meet each quarry's demands. This ensures clear communication lines and undiluted performance, responsibility and accountability.

Quarry managers place blasting orders with the RedBull regional supervisor who in turn arranges:

Blast design and mark-out
Drilling by a TopRock rig
Manufacture and delivery of bulk explosives by the RedBull manufacturing team
Load, fire and shoot
Monitoring, quality control, reporting, liaison and follow-up
