Abstract
The subject invention relates to an apparatus and process for mixing and delivering an explosives composition. The apparatus for use in the process comprises a main conduit which can be gas pressurised, a means for introducing a solid particulate phase to the main conduit for transportation by the gas and a means for introducing an emulsion phase into said main conduit such that turbulence of the gas in the main conduit causes uniform mixing of the solid particulate phase and the emulsion phase.
