What kind of matter does dynamite change to after the explosion?

Dynamite and its effect on matter is fascinating to consider. At the moment of setting off dynamite (TNT) there is a chemical change within the dynamite itself. The effect of this chemical change initiates a physical change--in rock, boulders, soil as the blast hits. Physical change continues as material slams back onto other material (e.g. rock against rock) turning more large size rock to smaller rocks and dust particles. At the same time, the chemical charge which occurred in the dynamite changes physical matter of the local site's air... which then also becomes mixed with dust particles. Both the chemical changes to air and the physical changes of rock blasted into the air must settle and clear. Using dynamite is somewhat similar to an eruption of a small volcano that throws up matter into the air within a chemical and physical change to rock, soil, and surrounding air, including at higher elevation--not just at ground level.
