BME provides sustainable solutions and ongoing support that create value across the blasting cycle - for our partners, their workforce and the broader mining community.
Towards electronic blasting systems
In their quest to improve productivity, safety and efficiency, local quarries are fast turning to electronic detonation systems, moving away from the traditional pyrotechnic methods. Leading mining explosive and blasting technology supplier, BME, reports increased uptake of electronic detonators in the South African quarrying sector, with an annual conversion rate of 12-14%.
The mining industry has made significant strides in gender equality in recent years, largely thanks to the remarkable efforts and resilience of women in the field. Their dedication, skills, and determination have played a crucial role in driving meaningful change and transformation, while inspiring more women to join the mining industry.
