Hydromite 70 is a booster sensitive bulk emulsion made from a mixture of 70% of Hydrox S with 30% low density ammonium nitrate porous prill and fuel oil. This emulsion is sensitized by chemical gassing. Hydromite 70 is widely used in surface mining, quarrying and construction work. As Hydromite 70 is not cap sensitive, it can be initiated by a suitable sized cartridge of Emulex 1 or APB.
