Systems and methods for loading explosive compositions having programmably/selectively defined density profiles into boreholes

Abstract

A system/apparatus including: at least one control system or control unit configured for changing a concentration/flow rate of a set of sensitizing agents for an explosive composition, wherein the sensitizing agents are introduced at or into at least one portion of an explosive composition loading system or apparatus in a manner that facilitates or enables generation of two or more explosive compositions having at least one density profile/distribution, wherein the changing of the concentration/flow rate provides the sensitizing agents with a concentration profile/distribution within and along a conduit/hose during flow of the explosive compositions toward and prior to the explosive compositions reaching a distal portion of the conduit/hose that is fluidically coupled to an outlet structure, wherein the concentration profile/distribution corresponds to the density profile/distribution.
