Blasting Contractor Based in the East Kootenay
Controlled bedrock extraction and maximum rock fragmentation. We engineer the blast to feed the crushers faster.
EXTRACTION ENGINEERING
Blasting Services Done By the Pros
We don't just blow up rock. We design highly engineered blast patterns that maximize fragmentation, ensure high-wall stability, and eliminate secondary breakage delays.
BLAST HOLE DRILLING
Precision drill-pattern execution. We calculate exact spacing, burden, and depths based on the geological profile to guarantee optimal explosive distribution.
CONTROLLED DETONATION
Executing complex shots in high-risk or sensitive environments. We strictly manage vibration, flyrock, and air overpressure to maintain absolute site safety.
OPTIMIZED FRAGMENTATION
Breaking the rock to the exact size required for immediate processing. We eliminate the need for secondary hammering, drastically increasing the throughput of the crushing spreads.

Blasting and Drilling for Your Next Project
Maximizing fragmentation while minimizing overbreak and environmental impact.
At FAFO Contracting, dealing with tough geological formations requires exact calculations, not just brute force.
We pair state-of-the-art drilling technology with highly controlled precision blasting to ensure exact rock fracture. By strictly managing our explosive loads and hole placements, we control ground vibration and eliminate unnecessary secondary breaking. This keeps your mine site development moving safely and efficiently, even in complex or sensitive environments.
