Abstract
The energy released during blasting in underground and surface mines for excavation purposes can cause flyrock, excessive level of ground vibration and air blast. In this study, ground vibration and air blast induced by blasting were measured and evaluated for a quarry mine in the Kangal district of Sivas province. Within the scope of this study, observations and measurements were made before, during, and after two blasting operations in a quarry mine to evaluate the environmental effects of blasting. The environmental effects of blasting were assessed by considering both the blasting parameters and the ground vibration and air blast measurement results.
