Q.What is Magazine? Ans... Magazine is a place where the Detonator and Explosive is stored. Site of Magazine The site of magazine is at specified distance from residential, public places, public roads etc. Distance depends upon the capacity.  The most important thing is, site and the construction both are approved by Explosive Inspector. Procedure of Establishment The application form "C" and "D" should be made to the regional controller of Explosives with six copies of site plan and magazine construction. After that the controller forwards these documents to chief Controller of Explosives. CCE issue a form "E" and a draft copy of "L" with site plane to District Magistrate who will issue a No objection Certificate. After that CCE allows to proceed construction and also issue a licence in form E. When the construction is complete, Regional Controller inspect the building. The licence must be renewed annually. Portable Magazin

In this post we will discuss about the Charge preparation for underground blasting... For blasting, the charging of hole may consist of one or more cartridge and the separation of cartridge should be least as much possible. Among the charged explosive in a hole, it is necessary that a Detonator is inserted in one of the explosive. The cartridge having Detonator in it, called prime cartridge. To insert Detonator, a hole is maked with a Pricker of brass or wood. Insert the Detonator until it is completely buried in explosive after that put back the flap of cartridge and bind the cartridge around with wire to prevent the detonator to come out during charging. Charging of Shot Holes Proper charging of shot hole is important to get the desire results. We follows two methods to Charge the holes.. 1. Direct Initiation 2. Inverse Initiation Here we will discuss these two methods.. Preparation of Shot Hole Direct Initiation This is the method of Charging of hol

Hello, if your here, then I'm sure that you want to gather knowledge that "how to be a overman"?  Education If you want to be an Overman, in this case you must have a Diploma certificate. Apart from this there are also few certificates are required. List of certificate 1. Diploma in Mining Engineering 2. Valid First-aid Certificate 3. Gas Testing Certificate 4. PG PT Certificate 1. Diploma in Mining If you wants to pursue your career in mining, in this case diploma in mining is required to be overman. The duration of diploma is from 2-3 for lateral and regular respectively. You can take lateral entry after +2 (science) and who wants to take admission for 3 years, it is required that he have passed the the. *For my personal point of view, I will suggest for three year diploma. 2. Valid First-aid Certificate If you want to serve in Mines the valid First-aid is required because if someone is mines hey injured then you have to do his First-a

In previous post we have discussed about Fire damp Explosion. Now in this post we will discuss a detail about 1. Coal Dust Explosion. & 2. How to prevent it?  You May also like To Read These....       Fire Damp Explosion        Rope Splicing Let's Begin.... Coal Dust Explosion  To explode the coal dust, it has to be suspended in air as a cloud, which is capable to burst and propagate through out the mines. This propagation is due to the presence of coal dust through out the mines. As only 1g/c.c is required for propagation and it is known that no part of mines is free from that.                Before explosion the coal dust should be in the form of cloud in air and the density (30 to 40g/cubic meter) of this so much that no can see through it. To explode coal dust only sufficient density and ignition source is required. As we have discussed in previous post that the Fire Damp Explosion is followed by this explosion. This is because after Fire Damp

Before dealing with Fire Damp.. Here we will discuss About the Definition of Explosion and also we will know about the types of Explosion in Mines. ..So Let's Go... Q.What is Explosion? Ans...:- Explosion can be defined as it the process of sudden change in the volume of any substance instantaneously into gaseous product which produces large quantity of heat energy. Alike above explained, the explosion in mines are of three types. 1. Firedamp Explosion 2. Coal Dust Explosion 3. Water Gas Explosion In this post we will only discuss about "Fire Damp Explosion". 1. Explosion of Fire Damp(Methane) Fire damp is the most common cause of explosion in Coal Mines. The Coal Dust Explosion alone is very rare though it have been initiated by fire damp many times. The explosibility limit of firedamp is between 5.4 to 14.8% in presence of some ignition source and the percentage of Oxygen with respect to Methane percentage. "The maximum explosion
