Abstract

An explosive composition includes dense prilled ammonium nitrate, a liquid hydrocarbon and a solid fuel capable of absorbing the liquid hydrocarbon. Preferably the ammonium nitrate prills have a bulk density of 0.95 to 1.0 gm. per c.c. The liquid hydrocarbon may be diesel oil and the solid fuel finely milled anthracite, waxed sunflower seed husks, waxed oat husks, or oat husks. Optional ingredients are powdered light metal (e.g. aluminium) or alloy, and an organic surface active agent. When used for blasting rock, the explosive is loaded into boreholes with a high velocity loader which causes breakdown of the ammonium nitrate prills.
