Shagun Blast
Shagun Blast is a cutting-edge gel slurry explosive designed for surface mining and quarry blasting. Formulated with ammonium nitrate and sensitive to caps, this powerful explosive improves the performance of non-cap-sensitive explosives as well as ANFO. Its gel-like texture and high loading density enable it to deliver maximum energy for effectively breaking rock. The innovative packaging ensures it is resistant to water and provides outstanding safety against mechanical impacts and friction. Thanks to its compatibility with water, Shagun Blast is ideal for use in watery boreholes, making it a versatile option for a range of blasting applications.
