How was dynamite used in mining?

Dynamite was used in mining to break up rocks, ore, and other materials. It was typically placed in drilled holes and then detonated to create explosions that would fragment the material for easier extraction. Dynamite revolutionized the mining industry by allowing for more efficient and controlled excavation processes.


Why must dynamite be detonated before it will explode?

It's destructive the same way any other explosive is destructive. A chemical reaction triggers the explosive material, resulting in it exploding, violently destroying anything or anyone who happens to be nearby. What separates dynamite from other explosives is how sensitive dynamite is. Less sensitive explosives like TNT will only explode if it is triggered by a remote button or trigger, whereas dynamite can easily explode if you mishandle it. This is why most militaries have abandoned dynamite in favor of TNT.

How was dynamite made?

Dynamite was invented by Alfred Nobel (of the eponymous Nobel Prizes) in 1867.Early dynamite was made by mixing the explosive liquid nitroglycerin into an absorbent compound, such as diatomaceous earth. It was then wrapped in paper to make sticks, which were detonated by a blasting cap inserted into astick or bundle.A less dangerous alternative was to use ammonium nitrate instead of the unstable nitroglycerin. So called ammonium dynamitewas nearly as powerful.Modern dynamite is mostly a mix of RDX, TNT, and oil and is called military dynamite. This mixture is designed to provide the explosive power without the safety risks of actual dynamite.


Is ntrogen in dynamite?

Yes. Nitrogen is in dynamite. The explosive ingredient in dynamite is Nitroglycerine. The glycerine molecule comes from fat, either vegetable or animal. It makes jello jell. When a nitric oxide molecule is added, it becomes nitroglycerine. It can be used as an explosive or a heart medicine. To turn nitroglycerine into dynamite, the nitroglycerine is mixed with clay and a few other chemicals.
