An explosive booster for initiating, and thus causing detonation of, a bulk explosive, includes a hollow body comprising a base member and a sidewall projecting from the base member. The body defines an interior space between the base member and the sidewall for containing a detonable booster formulation in use. A hollow elongate initiator locating formation projects longitudinally into the interior space at least from the base member and defines an initiator channel that is open through the base member, for locating an explosive initiator in initiating proximity relative to a detonable booster formulation contained in the interior space in use. The initiator channel extends longitudinally along a central longitudinal axis thereof that is radially spaced from, and parallel to, a central longitudinal axis along which the interior space longitudinally extends.

Abrégé

A method of transporting emulsion explosive vertically includes feeding emulsion explosive into a vertically extending conduit, onto a support member that is located in the conduit such that emulsion explosive is supported on the support member in the conduit. The support member is vertically movable along the conduit at a predetermined, variable, controllable rate of descent. The method further includes moving the support member vertically downward in the conduit at a predetermined, variable, controlled rate of descent, thus transporting emulsion explosive vertically in the conduit.
