Abstract
The article presents the design model and results for the main crack development in closely spaced blasting in brittle rocks. The 3D modeling is described as case-study of crack formation in granite in perimeter blasting of ammonite charges at different spacing and filling of blastholes. The shapes and sizes are determined for the main cracks generated by blasting of single charge and three close-spaced charges. From the modeling results obtained for a specific charge, the method is proposed to determine efficient spacing of blastholes in perimeter blasting to ensure the maximal area of the created crack.
