Seismic Explosive
Tovex® Seismic is a water gel explosive especially designed for Seismic Exploration. It is a cap sensitive product and need to be initiated with seismic detonator (by virtue of application). Taking into consideration the In direct comparison to seismographic 60% high-velocity dynamite, below are the advantages it has;
In direct comparison to seismograph 60% high-velocity dynamite;
- Tovex® Seismic Explosive is proven to be consistently high performing with far less risk in handling as compared to any of the class called dynamite.
- Much safer in use, been totally non-toxic fume generator.
- No headache while working with Biafo seismic product which on the contrary is inbuilt problem of dynamite by virtue of its ingredients.
- Shot hole results reveal its performance better than dynamite for Seismic prospecting.
- Seismic Explosive chub being hermetically produced is particularly well suited for application as a longer time sleep charge.
- Excellent resistance to water and thus don't desensitize under high hydrostatic pressures in the bore holes.
- The chubs are exceptionally of high quality material and can be screwed together to form a string as per desired length by virtue of application.
