Drill & Blast

From the Issued Plan to a Blast You Can Account For. Drill & Blast is the engineering bridge between an issued mine plan and Grade Control. It takes the plan's bench and the ground, blast and water domains, and carries a blast through pattern design, drilling, charging and initiation — keeping design and actual side by side — then through engineering analysis, QA/QC and blast movement to a handoff Grade Control reads without re-keying. Holes are cut against domain solids by the compute engine, and every record carries its evidence.

A module of the platform

Drill & Blast runs on the shared geoscience foundation

Drill & Blast is one module of the SpatialTechSolutions AI-powered mining geoscience platform — sharing the same governed data foundation, map, certified compute layer, and AI layer as the resource, planning, ground, water, and GIS modules.

One governed estate across the mine — every stage works the same drillholes, projects, and records, not seven disconnected packages.

Enterprise evaluation

A production evaluation should prove technical fit, governance, deployment model, data readiness, and workflow value before procurement.

Deployment fit

Review cloud, self-hosted, ArcGIS-connected, and open-source GIS integration options before implementation.

Governance model

Validate authentication, data access, audit logging, and review controls with technical stakeholders.

Workflow proof

Walk through the Drill & Blast workflow end to end — from governed data in to the deliverable out — with validation, governance, and provenance checked at each step.

Adoption plan

Define users, training needs, rollout sequence, success metrics, and implementation responsibilities.
