Mining operations are becoming more complex as underground environments get deeper, more variable, and more selective. In this episode of Mining Now, Orica specialists explore how Orica’s 4D™ Underground Bulk Technology is changing the way engineers approach blasting by enabling true in-hole energy control during loading. Instead of relying on a single fixed energy profile, 4D™ allows energy to be adjusted within a blasthole using advanced emulsion chemistry, automated delivery systems, and digital control.🔸 Visit Orica to Learn More: https://www.orica.com/resource-hub/insight/2026/podcast-spotlight-4d-underground-on-mining-now?utm_source=mining_now&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=4DUG_podcast&utm_id=4dug_mining_now&utm_content=banner_cta Mining NOW Partner🔹 CIM | Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum: https://www.cim.org/ Voice of Industry Tour Partner🔹 @orica Digital Solutions - Integrated Extraction Simulator (IES): https://www.orica.com/Products-Services/Digital-Solutions/integrated-extraction-simulatorEpisode Sponsors 🔹 IFS : https://www.ifs.com/en/industries/energy-utilities-and-resources/mills-and-mining?utm_campaign=anz-mining_podcast_campaign-eur-2026-q1&utm_medium=display&utm_source=18032_-_programmatic🔹 @Wingtra : www.wingtra.com🔹 @CIM-ICM : https://bit.ly/49DvtlG🔹 Australian Diversified Engineering (ADE): https://www.ade.net.au/🔹 @ampcontrol : https://ampcontrolgroup.com/solutions/electrifying-mining?utm_source=Youtube&utm_medium=Banner%2FAd&utm_campaign=IMARC_Crownsmen&utm_id=Crownsmen 🔹 @SavonaEquipment : https://www.savonaequipment.com/?utm_source=Email+&utm_medium=Email+&utm_campaign=Email+&utm_id=Savona+Equipment
