Logging of detonator usage
First Claim
1. A method of logging use of a non-electric detonator, which comprises recording identity data associated with the detonator at the time the detonator is being loaded in a blasthole, recording consumption of the detonator, and relating the identity data associated with the detonator to an inventory of non-electric detonators thereby allowing the inventory to be updated, wherein the identity data associated with the non-electric detonator are recorded using an electronic device, wherein the identity data associated with the non-electric detonator are recorded immediately before the detonator is loaded in the blasthole.
