Possibilities for excavation by nuclear explosions
Considerable potential exists in Australia for application of technology developed in Plowshare program for peaceful uses of nuclear explosives in engineering; civil engineering applications include surface excavation of reservoirs, harbors, canals, rail and road cuts; mining explosions include quarrying, fracturing orebody and low-grade deposits, stimulation of gas and oil flow, oil or tar recovery, formation of chimneys for gas storage and for industrial waste; results of United States Plowshare program.
