Blasting is used to break up solid rock in open cut mines and quarries.
Blast or NOXIOUS fumes are the gases that may be generated during blasting.
Some of the gases are toxic and some are not.
In terms of health impacts, the critical gases generated are oxides of nitrogen (NOx) - nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and nitric oxide (NO).
