Abstract

Abstract. Features of blasting explosive charges on the ocean floor were analysed. The problems of shock effect localization in underwater mining are considered. Result. The analysis of the possibility of underwater mining of minerals from the ocean floor. Scientific novelty. For the first time, the parameters and developed designs of explosives for underwater explosions. Practical meaningfulness. It proved the possibility of underwater mining of mineral deposits at maximum protection of ichthyofauna.
