Blasting Design of 1185m Level Bench of Heidaigou Open-pit Coal Mine

To guarantee production safety and to improve the economic benefit of Heidaigou open-pit coal mine,the blasting design of level 1185 was optimized according to the specific condition and blasting requirement,and suitable blasting method was applied in main stope.According to the characteristics of covering rock on the coal seam,the high bench cast blasting method with pouring pile by using shovel was chosen.When the related blasting parameters were calculated and optimized,the final blasting scheme was determined,by which the cost of mine production was reduced greatly.
