Underground production blasting typically requires geometrically complex ring patterns.
Designing, analysing and visualising in 3D has never been easier, ring to ring and hole to hole interactions and overall blast dynamics are at your fingertips, allowing users to optimise and maximise output, benefit and results.” Orica Global Digital Products Senior Manager, Angelo Labriola, describes the new software, saying “The latest SHOTPlus Underground has been fully re-written and is now the premier blast design package for the underground mining sector. Following successful trials by Orica’s technical services teams, the new SHOTPlus™ Underground blast design and modelling software is designed specifically for advanced underground blast design and complex blasting scenarios. Since its original launch, SHOTPlus™ has grown to be the mining industry’s leading drill and blast software solution around the world, says Orica. Orica, the world’s largest manufacturer of commercial explosives and innovative blasting systems, has announced the release of its new blast design and modelling software for underground mining applications, SHOTPlus™ Underground.
