INTERNATIONALSAFE & EFFICIENTBLASTING COURSESweden 16 - 24 May 2020

Dear Reader,

It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in Orica’s annual International Safe & Efficient Blasting (SEB) Course 2020. The course will be held at Orica’s manufacturing facility in Gyttorp, Sweden. Lectures will include Orica’s Senior Technical Manager and Senior Technical Specialists in mining and tunneling.

The Safe & 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 from the course.

The presentations and content of the Safe & Efficient Blasting 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 optimize 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 included. We feel confident that you will benefit from and appreciate your training in the Nordics, both from a professional and social point of view.

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 two days.
