Explosives Detonation Exclusion Zones Checklist

Use this Critical Control Verification checklist to plan and verify safe exclusion zones for explosives detonation in mining operations. It covers risk scope and control objectives, confirms that modeling and simulation define minimum zones, and validates designs for flyrock and fume management. Verify guard placement and access control, removal of personnel through evacuation, and lightning detection and protection procedures. Review records for electrical storms, misfire reports and risk assessments to ensure exclusion zones were established and enforced. Attach evidence and record compliance.
