    A. Accuracy in borehole placement, depth, diameter, and alignment allows drillers to place a specific explosive charge in specific locations, to achieve optimum results. Good drilling practices require accurate layout and drilling of blast holes. Drilling accuracy optimises production at all stages and reduces cost. It also increases the effectiveness of a blast.
