SAFETY PROCEDURES FOR BLASTS
All operations for transporting, handling, and loading explosives shall observe applicable industry
standards and regulations as defined by the appropriate city, county, state, or federal governing
agency. All blast events will be conducted in such a manner that complies with all safety cautions,
procedures, or regulations of the applicable city, county, state, or federal governing agency. This
includes but is not limited to: clearing the blast zone, guarding the blast area, and vehicular or
pedestrian traffic control. No explosives will be stored on site.
TEST BLASTS
The project aims to limit the peak particle velocity (PPV) at the monitoring wells to a maximum
of 1 inch per second (in/sec). Initially, test blasts will be conducted and their effects will be
monitored and analyzed to determine if any revisions to the blast design are needed for subsequent
blasts. Monitoring data will be continuously evaluated during the blasting phase to identify the
need for any adjustments to the blast design. Once ground conditions are established, a ground
vibration calculator will be used to determine the amount of explosives that can be used at various
distances from the monitoring wells, while keeping the vibration below the 1.0 in/sec PPV
threshold. For example, under normal ground conditions, at a distance of 50 feet from the
monitoring wells, 4 lbs of explosives would result in a PPV of 0.9 in/sec, and at a distance of 100
feet, 15 lbs of explosives would also result in a PPV of 0.9 in/sec, and so on.
BLAST SITE DIMENSIONS
Blasts will consist of approximately 50-200 holes. The depth of rock is somewhat variable (8-
10ft). Approximately 5,000 cubic yards of material is expected to be blasted on this project.

DRILL PATTERN
The proposed pattern is to drill 3.5" diameter boreholes with a burden of 5-9 feet and a spacing of
5-9 feet.
BLASTS REQUIRED
Several blasts over a few week period will be required for this project.
EXPLOSIVES LOADING & INITIATION
The type of explosives to be used will be Riohit 250MS 2.5" x 7, Riodin HE 2 x16 and ANFO for
the main charges in each borehole, initiated with an appropriate detonating booster charge.
Methods utilized for wet blasting are not expected to be required for this job. See SDS sheets
below. The main charges weigh approximately 2.5 to 3.5 pounds per foot and the total charge per
hole will be decided on proximity to nearest dwellings, site specific conditions and as determined
by the drill depth of boreholes. Booster charges can be cast boosters or other cap -sensitive charge,
the choice of which will be the discretion of the blaster in charge. The type of delay system will
be Zipdet DD 25/500. The sequence will be 25ms. The maximum of explosives on any one delay
period will be 25 lbs.
This project is expected to require 10,000 lbs of explosives. The blast will utilize approximately
5 lbs to 25 lbs of explosives per delay depending on the proximity to nearest monitoring well.
As one means to control ground movement, sufficient inert stemming material will be loaded at
the top of each borehole, beginning below the depth where competent rock was encountered.
Stemming height will be determined by the discretion, experience and judgment of the blaster in
charge, and site -specific conditions for each shot.
GROUND CONTROL
All blasts shall have sufficient cover of natural soil materials so as to prevent excessive movement
of material from the blast zone or project site. Sufficient cover will be determined by the
experience and judgment of the blaster in charge. The overburden on this project is 0-10 feet. The
blaster will include in their consideration such factors as rock type, geologic conditions, borehole
depth, charge weight, and any other relevant, site -specific conditions for each shot. If the blaster
in charge determines there is not sufficient natural cover, additional soils should be placed atop
the blast zone according to the blaster's instructions. In certain circumstances, artificial matting
could be required, also according to the blaster's determination.
MONITORING BLAST EFFECTS

Seismic monitoring will be conducted by an independent third party, Vibra-Tech. Seismographs
will be placed at the nearest monitoring well for each blast.
BLAST WARNING SIGNALS
Warning signals for each blast will be as follows:
Three long sounds of horn five minutes prior to the blast.
Two short sounds of horn one minute before the blast.
One long sound of horn for all clear after the blast.
BLAST RECORDS
A record of each blast will be kept with the date, time, location, total amount of explosives,
maximum explosive charge weight per delay and where necessary seismograph records identified
by instrument number and location. These files will be kept in Carolina Drilling, Incs office at:
326 Railroad St. Mocksville, NC 27028.

2.3 Other hazards.
The product may have the following additional risks:
Risks presented upon inhalation and contact with the skin, as well as ingestion, due to the nitroesther content. May cause
headaches, nausea, dilation of peripheral blood vessels and a drop in blood pressure.
May mass detonate as a result of: impact friction, fire, spark or due to the vibration of a nearby explosion. Explosion produces a
strong excess pressure and heat and may cause serious physical injury and even death.
IMPORTANT: Do not use this explosive in jobs that contain or may contain flammable gases and/or powders.
The smoke resulting from detonation and combustion is toxic. It contains nitrogen oxides (NOx) and odourless and colourless
carbon oxides (CO and 002). Symptoms caused by exposure to the detonation's toxic fumes are: headache, nausea, fatigue,
confusion and fainting. It may also cause irritation in the respiratory system, bronchitis, and bronchopneumonia; in serious cases,
acute pulmonary oedema and death may result.
IMPORTANT: In surface and interior explosions these residual fumes may migrate underground to confined spaces (including
tunnels, wells, basements, etc.) where they accumulate and can remain for a long period of time. To enter these locations after
an explosion, always follow the rules for entry into confined spaces and always verify that there are no toxic fumes present before
entering.
Rock blasting may produce large -sized fragments, in non -stable positions, with risks of landslides and aerial projections.

to the withdrawal of the affected, make sure the total dissipation of smoke, or, if necessary, appropriate personal protective
equipment, (unit autonomous respiratory, mask with its proper filter, etc...).
IMPORTANT: in case of any exposure to these toxic smoke, do need an immediate medical examination. There is a risk of
suffering from an edema of lung effect delayed to such exposure
Eve contact.
If wearing contact lenses, remove them. Wash eyes with plenty of dean and cool water for at least 10 minutes while pulling
eyelids up, and seek medical assistance.
Skin contact
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin vigorously with water and soap or a suitable skin cleaner. NEVER use solvents or
thinners.
Ingestion.
If accidentally ingested, seek immediate medical attention. Keep calm. NEVER induce vomiting.

Very Toxic Product, accidental contact may result in serious respiratory difficulties, alteration of the central nervous system and in
extreme cases, unconsciousness. Immediate medical assistance is required.
