INTERNATIONALSAFE & EFFICIENTBLASTING COURSE& MINING TOURSWEDEN 18 MAY - 30 MAY 2019

Dear Reader,

It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in Orica’s annual International Safe & Efficient Blasting (SEB) Course 2019, to be held in at Orica’s manufacturing facility at Gyttorp, Sweden. As in previous years, the 2019 program includes excursions to construction projects in Stockholm and optional trips to mining projects in northern Sweden. Lecturers will include Orica’s Senior Technical Manager and Senior Technical Specialists in mining and tunnelling.

The Safe and Efficient Blasting Course is designed for blasting professionals including Blasting Engineers, Blasters, Shotfirers, Blasting Supervisors and Managers of mines, quarries and construction projects. People from support functions such as supply chain and procurement who wish to get a deeper knowledge of blasting and explosives products will also benefit.

The presentations and content of the SEB Course are designed to introduce all personnel involved in the blasting process to the latest technology. The Course will enable participants to make informed decisions on how to optimise their blasting operations, thereby ensuring that blasting products and processes result in downstream benefits. Facts about the characteristics and applications of explosives and initiation systems as well as techniques, both in Open Pit and Underground operations are includ-ed. We feel confident that you will benefit from and appreciate your training in the Nordics, both from a professional and social point of view.

This year the course will include common modules applicable to all blasting, followed by parallel specialist lectures for underground and surface blasting topics. Participants are invited to choose to attend either session. The total duration of these parallel sessions is about 2 days.
