In this video, Greg McLean (Senior Engineering Specialist, Inspector of Mines) points out the features of a truck equipped for explosives transport. The truck is carrying cast boosters in the explosives compartment (cast boosters are high explosive cartridges, used for priming the production blast holes). A thick wooden wall (6") keeps these boosters from coming into contact with the detonators housed in the other compartment.
