| Irish Industrial Explosives Ltd (IIE) offers a complete, on-site service that delivers explosives directly into the shothole. |
| |
Kemex is a site manufactured explosive. The non-explosive materials are transported in a specifically-designed pumptruck. The materials, once blended, are pumped direct into the shothole by trained and experienced operators.
The system, with a capacity of up to ten tonnes, meters the quantity delivered while loading the shot. |
