ZEGA D470A DTH blasthole drilling rig
Three main types of holes are drilled in surface mining
1. Blast holes
Hole diameter 115 – 229 mm (4½ – 9 in)
Hole depth 6 – 20 m (18 – 60 ft)
− Blast holes are production holes and will be filled with explosives
− Drilling accuracy is important to obtain good and even distribution of the explosives in the rock
− This will optimize fragmentation and facilitate further handling such as mucking, hauling and crushing
2.Buffer holes
Hole diameter 115 – 152 mm (4½ – 6 in)
Hole depth 6 – 20 m (18 – 60 ft)
3.Perimeter holes (pre-split)
Hole diameter 115 – 152 mm (4½ – 6 in)
Hole depth 6 – 20 m (18 – 60 ft)
− Pre-split and buffer holes are used for wall control
− This method reduces the amount of waist rock excavation and also the risk of rock fall from pit walls
− Usually smaller hole diameter than blast holes to carry less explosives

Application
Quarrying aggregate – limestone
Application demands
− A wide spread of customers in this application, from small quarries serviced by contract drillers to big operations with own personnel and equipment
Blast hole drilling
Hole diameter 90 – 205 mm (3½” – 8”)
Hole depth 10 – 30m
− Many quarries are located close to urban areas and environmental regulations put restrictions on drilling parameters
− Hole accuracy is important
− Noise restrictions give DTH drilling an advantage
