DIFFERENTIAL ENERGY™
How does DIFFERENTIAL ENERGY improve safety, productivity, and
the environment?
 99 Product is not sensitized until it is delivered to the blasthole
SAFETY

99 Reduces potential for flyrock by placing low density gassed emulsion near the collar and/or areas of low burden
 99 Improves highwall stability, a result of accurate control of energy at the crest
 99 Thickened emulsion resists flowing into cracks and voids
 99 Emulsion densities can be tailored to the hardness of the rock
 99 Single product for both wet and dry conditions
 99 Reduces explosives inventory costs and simplifies budgeting
 99 Eliminates need to ship and store blasting agents at the site
PRODUCTIVITY

99 Blast pattern expansion possible, as a result of higher detonation pressure capabilities in the hole
 99 Optimizes quantity of product and minimizes overuse of explosives to achieve desired breakage
 99 Precise energy placement for the application, rock hardness, and blast profile
 99 Matches energy with geologic requirements to break hard rock seams without damaging coal
 99 Performance isn’t compromised by wet conditions or long sleep times compared to ANFO and HANFO
 99 Optimizes blast fragmentation for increased productivity, reducing downstream processing costs
 99 Improves blasthole loading accuracy and maximizes blast energy efficiency
 99 Optimizes blast fragmentation reducing fines and oversize; blast energy is better distributed
 99 Reduces wear on loading, hauling, and crushing equipment; fragmentation is more consistent
ENV.

99 Minimizes post-blast NOx generation with high performance water resistant emulsion
 99 Reduces groundwater contamination because thickened emulsion detonates completely
