    This document discusses different types of underground metal mining cuts and holes. It describes parallel cuts where holes are perpendicular to the face and angled cuts where holes are drilled at an angle. It notes advantages of parallel holes like easier drilling accuracy. It also details types of holes used including cut holes fired first to create a free face, and easer holes placed around cut holes to enlarge the excavation area. Specifically, it explains the burn cut pattern which uses a series of parallel holes at right angles to the face, with one or more central holes left uncharged to form zones of weakness.

    TYPES OF CUTS
    PARALLEL CUT
    Cut holes are put perpendicular to the face
    Or parallel to the working direction.
    Ex.
    Burn Cut
    Cormorant Cut

    ANGLED CUT
    Cut holes are made at some angle to the axis
    Of the working face.
    Ex.
    Wedge Cut
    Pyramid Cut
    Fan Cut
    Drag Cut

    PARALLEL HOLES VIS--VIS


    ANGLED HOLES
    The width of tunnel and size of drill with its mountings
    limit the angle relative to the axis of tunnel at which the
    holes can be drilled. There is no such problem in parallel
    holes.
    Accuracy of drilling: in some of angled cut patterns, pair
    of holes drilled should meet as close as possible to
    promote flash over. In practice it is difficult to achieve ,
    thereby, less pull is resulted. Drilling parallel holes is
    much more easier and accurate.
    Angled Holes: Dependence of blasthole depth on the
    width of working as holes require sloping(inclination).
    Difficult to collar and drill holes accurately in the desired

    TYPES OF HOLES

    TYPES OF HOLES
    Cut holes: These holes are fired first to created free face for the
    shots of easers.
    Since these holes first make the opening in the face, they are
    prime responsible
    for the depth of pull.
    Easers: The shot holes of this group are placed in the tunnel
    around the cut
    holes in two or more rings depending on the cross - sectional area.
    These holes
    ease the burden between the succeeding shot holes to enlarge
    the excavation
    area of the tunnel. Sometime Easer holes are also called stopping
    holes or
    enlarger holes or blast holes.

    THE BURN CUT


    A series of parallel holes are drilled closely
    spaced at right
    angles to the face. One hole or more at the centre
    of the face
    are uncharged. This is called the burn cut.
    The uncharged holes are often of larger diameter
    than the
    charged holes and form zones of weakness that
    assist the
    adjacent charged holes in breaking out the ground.
    Since all holes are at right angles to the face,
    hole placement
