NO MORE FEAR: EXAM IS FOR ASSESSMENT AND NOT TO BE FEARED (with testimony) BY: GIANT MINER Is there anything to fear than GOD? NO, not even the fear of exam! Fear is a great barrier to many students and not only affect them emotionally but also close the door of mind to remember things in exam. Human soul is made of three compactments,  The mind (room of knowledge) The Emotion The will (Decision divider) all connected. Fear makes student fail because they loss access to their mind which is the base of information for breaking the barrier of examination and test. If you never experienced it you won't understand, every student wants to have good grade, 98% is fully prepared but not all will finally actualize their expectation this is a fact! Fear is one of the cloud of limitation when sitting for examination, you may even be prepared but still you have that mind that the question may likely not be from what you have read all over night, imagine! Fear is a system that kill...

  SUBDRILL: AN IMPORTANT PARAMETER IN BLASTING BACKGROUND OF THE ARTICLE To a non mining Engineer or Blasting Engineer, the question must have come to you most time that,  1. why subdrill in Blasting, what is the important? 2. Why most subdrill be included in of rock blast and which formation will subdrill not required? This article provides brief answers to the above knowledge gap. 1. INTRODUCTION Subdrill by definition is the additional hole length included to the Bench height to improve Blasting result and Bench safety. Most drillhole blasted in the mine especially in small scale miners and artisanal blasting Operation don't include subdrill because they tend not to know it important. As I have define earlier, there is a specified bench height design to mine an orebody, but the extended hole length beyond the bench height is known as subdrill length. Subdrill is one of the most important Blasting parameters that is use to improve not just the fragmentation rate ...

IF SAFE AND PRODUCTIVE IS MINABLE Explosive charge can vary from rock to rock due to the different in discontinuity property, rock Strength, rock impedance, rock type, rock grains packing and other non controllable factors. Make a good pre-planning before Blasting and also use test Blasting to build a standard blast design for your mine. SAFTEY and Profit must be balance. Our miners must return home to their children and wife safely. We mine the ore and keep the earth healthy for the next generation. As you resume to morning, evening and afternoon shift take note of the possible hazards in the mine due to previous operation. Check the mine face in case of overbreak, check the ramp in case of slabbing effect, check blast pile for undetonated Explosive charge, cord, check drilled hole dimension and accuracy, check the operation Condition of your equipment. Check records from last shift person, try and look into any recommendations and complain in the Reports to put them in or...
