[QUOTE="Greenhornet_au, post: 656128, member: 8767"] The article states that it was an "emulsion", so I suppose it may have been a premixed product and not a prill to be mixed on site. The ICI manual I used to have, stated for safety that AN was to be mixed on site, and loaded directly into the charge hole because of the hazards of static and or heat causing potential ignition. I am concerned that it is transported in this state of 'emulsion' to a mine site. Likely one of the trucks trailer brakes locked up causing the fire. Driver has big balls to be decoupling the rest and driving away, and lucky there was no one else nearby, talk about job hazards, most people only worry about paper cuts. 🤯 [/QUOTE]
