2014-4-2 · Varying the shot pattern may mean changes in product size throughout the operation. Smaller shot rock resulting in less crushing in the secondary and tertiary stages may mean less improvement through crushing. Therefore the mineral quality and/or changes in physical properties of the product may be affected. Figure 5-2. Drilling Figure 5-3.
