An investigation to evaluate the relationship between rock quality index (RQI) and powder factor for surface mining
The determination of the blastability of the rock mass is a problem that faces blasting engineers on a daily basis. The costly trial and error approach may eventually lead to a suitable design, although constant variations in the rock mass properties presume that this approach is constantly in progr...
