The drilling and blasting cost in open pit mine represent 15–20% of the total mining cost [1,2,, 3,4,5,, 6]. The cost of the blasting unit operation has inverse relationship with the cost of the loading, hauling and crushing. This calls for optimization of fragmentation in order to optimize the cost of MMFS.

Modern Technological Applications for Limestone Mining
An alternative to the conventional drill and blast method is the use of rippers. Rippers can be used for limestone mining as limestone is a 'rippable' sedimentary rock (refer to Sect. 3.1.1) Using rippers in small mines or for a group consisting of more than one mine is economical and productive.
