Blackwater coal blasts

[proaudiohd]

I hope you get a chance to make this video again with a better windscreen on your mic!

[MrDraketoby]

any body monitor air blast. good greif, holes blowing out left and right

[pyrofella]

..and....sorry about screwing up the landscape?........These coal fields are left looking like the moon when the mining companies leave......it ends up as useless land...

[mucbeanz]

@pyrofella lakes my friend lakes and fishes

[pyrofella]

@mucbeanz Not where I come from...the old coal mining areas look like shit and have looked that way for years...trees won't even grow there.

[Rubenleesims]

No, I never said "stop brekin coal." My message is stop using coal waste to kill low income and minority people. Those that profit from the coal should store the coal waste in their own yards and neighborhoods, not mine. Coal is a valuable resource in many ways, including as a secret weapon of death, disease, and destruction of the low income and minority races as a tool of genocide.

[jeeraff]

they should definetly not fill any of these holes in.. when the floods come they would hold soooooo much water

[6goldie8]

Good video footage...dreadful potential result for the health of those living nearby

[SittingMooseShaman]

...know what that does!?! THAT, keeps my family, 100dreds of thousands of other fathers' & their families and I- WARM AND SAFE from winters' killing freeze!!! AND employs 1,000nds of men and women plus the support for those families! All those Scab-Nazi "anti's" bitchin' concern is for a local 'environ' and the lust of their 'sight-seein' eyes. ...just the same, what them enviro-Hitler Youth refuse to recognise is that "this," protects the local-families too! Those same families which they hate!

[SuperDickweed]

Boys, I'd say we just blew Mother Nature a new corn shute!

[SuperDickweed]

Sometimes, you have to blow Mothe Nature a new cornshute.

The person that designs these blasts truly is deserving of the title "Master Blaster" !

[shewi60]

Coalminers have it way to easy lol

[t64norton]

Awesome job. Love the cast shots. You using nonel or electric?

[fireman8ball]

This is an AWESOME video !!! I have been watching it over and over. Great job !!

[kyikyiaye]

what brand and model of blast hole drill machines used to drill the holes?

How many kg of ANFO do you used for one hole?

You have excellent blasting mine design and it was so effective.How did you do it?

I 'm so curious to know your blasting technology.Can you share me?

[kraken58]

How many days of drilling and lining up the explosives ?

[mikeybnz]

bloody outstanding mate....i really would like to havea a go at doing this stuff!

[alvinolson1]

Impressive Clips . Helps to undersatnd the open cast process. I made a clip up of my visit and uploaded for my friends

[Rubenleesims]

Coal kills: Many Americans have been exposed to; sickened by and died from coal related illnesses; heart disease, strokes, cancer, respiratory disease. Coal contains lead. Lead was removed from gasoline, paints, and many other domestic products but not coal. Coal waste contains over 200 deadly toxic chemicals that have contaminated many neighborhoods. The attached video shows the secret removal of coal waste from one of many neighborhoods where perhaps thousands have died.

@Rubenleesims so you think we should stop brekin coal? maybe stop breakin metal to ? whataya say we just stop breakin any materials and just sit down in one big ring and live on a big bowl of nothing? you do not really think what it would mean if we stopped breaking materials it would mean you get nun of the things that you just take for granted

[wappco]

Awesome footage of how to let explosives do the work in removing overburden. The pre-split shot at the end was very well done. As to the post mining condition of strip mine lands, I own several thousand acres of such land, most of which has been reseeded and reforested for wildlife use, while other areas are used for recreation as well as residential and industrial development. No better place for an airport in mountain terrain.

[Shalinar45]

This in Australia or Wyoming? 

[barticus04]

@Shalinar45 Australia!!

[burro250]

that last shot had the most beautiful pre-split!!!

[orbfile]

I dislike this - incredibly. I'm sure the river beds love all those rocks and the animals in that environment love having less or no water to swim/bathe in. Plus, the extra elements that they are not used to breathing and eating. Wonderful.

[veturbz]

@orbfile ahhh thats not a riverbed lol its just the bottom of the old face beside it where the ground/rainwater is sitting

[336Torana]

@orbfile - yeah cause I can't count the amount of times I have been to a deserted coal mine. completely void of vegetation and wildlife only to see billions of species of ... nothing. all in danger of being wiped out

[agentgooner007]

No wonder the waters black.
