Abstract
A fusible and vaporizable substance (for example, a thin metal wire is used) is fused and vaporized by supplying thereto a predetermined amount of electrical energy from a capacitor of an electrical energy supply circuit for a short period of time, and nitromethane is detonated by a phenomenon in the process in which the fusible and vaporizable substance fuses and vaporizes, so that an object to be blasted is reliably blasted by this detonation force.
