SPONSORED POST (Virtual Showroom): NXCO Mining Technologies is a proudly-South African Level 2 broad-based black economic empowerment company that manufactures and distributes a wide range of non-detonating cartridges throughout the world.

NXCO cartridges are fundamentally different from conventional explosives, offering significant advantages in sensitive blasting environments, where the use of high explosives is restricted or prohibited.

The two main characteristics of NXCO rock blasting cartridges (RBCs) are:
⁃ Nonex cartridges deflagrate and don’t detonate like explosives
⁃ The RBCs break rock by means of tensile strength and not compressive strength

The Nonex and Nxburst range of cartridges are available with a choice of initiators. Electric initiation is used on all cartridges and non-electric initiation is offered on sizes larger than 34 mm. A timing system for sequential firing is available for use on 34 mm, 60 mm and 90 mm cartridges and all cartridges can be waterproofed, on request.

NXCO cartridges are fully compliant with all relevant regulatory bodies and have been tested by UN accredited testing company TEN E Packaging, NRCan, Bureau Veritas in France and BAM in Germany for CE accreditation. These accreditations are accepted by all of its customers throughout the world. 

NXCO Mining Technologies is a one-stop supplier of rock breaking solutions, offering a high level of technical support and customer service. In addition, NXCO offers fully certified training courses for users of its rock breaking cartridges.
