I'd love to get a citation in here for the usage stats, and perhaps more recent ones as well (given that those in the article are from 1990). And is 500 Tg a correct figure for Australia? That's around a trillion dollars spent just on blasting in 1990 there! Exerda 16:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think so - see [1] (I've added a Harvard-style citation to the article since google books urls are unstable and frowned upon). Lupin|talk|popups 03:54, 16 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for adding the citation! Exerda 14: 42, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Can't "blasting" also refer to abrasive blasting? Moberg (talk) 23:07, 16 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Rock blasting is a bit too restricitive, heading should be blasting, the reference to demolition blasting can be incorporated. Need reference to other methods and varients of explosives. Steve. Stevenxlead (talk) 18:03, 23 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
