ANFOs mixed with special additives can lend themselves for use in applications where water resistance or adherence to up-holes is required.<\/p>\n<p>ANFOs are bulk explosives used as a column charge in both open-cut and underground blasting. There are four different types of ANFOs, which are suitable for a variety of conditions and applications.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>ANFO<\/strong> is intended to be loaded into dry boreholes.
