When excavation is required near communities, existing infrastructure, or sensitive environments, conventional explosives can introduce unacceptable risk. On this project, the objective was clear: safely and accurately excavate a dam outline on a mine site without blasting, without compromising rock-breaking performance, and within the constraints of limited site access.

When a regional mall required a new extension, the excavation team faced a clear constraint: the work area was surrounded by existing buildings, services, and overhead powerlines. Conventional blasting was not permissible. The project demanded a controlled, safe, and low-impact method to fracture and remove rock without compromising nearby infrastructure. NexPand Large Hole, a powerful rock breaking chemical designed specifically for use in large holes.
