A comparative study of microwave-assisted rock fragmentation versus other explosive-free rock breakage technologies

The conventional mining method relies on drilling into a mass of rock, filling the holes with explosive materials, and blasting them. This process leads to extracting the valuable minerals out of mines. But blasting operation can cause several environmental issues like dust generation, ground vibration and so force. Additionally, there are some rich resources that […]
