Funded Activity Summary

Bubble Stabilization and Density Control in Self-Supporting Explosive Emulsions. The mining industry in Australia employs about 70,000 people and has a total sales and service income of about $55B. Most mining outputs are commodities and a reduction in cost is the primary method of increasing market share. DNAP is a major supplier of explosive services to mines that produce coal, iron ore and gold for export. The work in this project will lead to more efficient explosives emulsions and allow mining tolower total cost per unit sold. Such improvements in mining efficiencies will have a direct impact of the selling price of the product. Increased export earnings and a greater number of people employed in the industry would be direct results of the successful completion of the work proposed.
