In tunneling, road and railroad cuts, it is of the utmost importance that he
remaining rock is of high quality in order to avoid rockfall, rockslides and excessive maintenance work. Line drilling Line drilling is the earliest controlled blasting method used. The purpose of line drilling is to create a plane of weakness by drilling closely spaced, small diameter holes along the perimeter of the excavation to which the blast can break. Line drill holes are usually not over 7 mm in diameter and the spacing is ! to " times the diameter of the hole. The hole depth should not be more than #! m, since deviation in longer holes may produce adverse results. These holes are not charged. $igure #% Line drilling.

The holes are usually ) mm to #)) mm in diameter in civil engineering applications whereas larger diameter holes &sometimes more than *)) mm in diameter' are proving to be successful in surface mining operations. The spacing between holes varies between ten to twenty times the hole diameter. The presplit shots transmit compressive shock waves, which, at their point of meeting between the boles, create a +one of tension, which fractures and shears the rock.

These holes are detonated last, in order to maximise the relief of burden. This reduces overbreak. 4nlike normal blasting underground, the spacing , between holes in the same row for surface excavation is less than the burden.

Cushion blasting 2ushion blasting is applicable in surface mining where the ob8ect is to trim the excess material from the final high wall to improve stability. ( single row of holes is drilled along the perimeter of the excavation. The si+e of the drillholes varies between ) mm to #9" mm. 2ushion blastholes are charged with small, well disributed charges in completely stemmed holes, which are fired after the main blast is excavated. The charges are fired with no delay, or minimum delay between boles. $igure :% 2ushion blasting
