IRECO Chemicals. IRECO Chemicals was organized in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1962 from a merger of Intermountain Research and Engineering Company and Mesabi Blasting Agents, Inc, for the purpose of commercializing slurry explosives. Slurry explosives were invented by Dr. [Pg.397]

Prior to its merger into IRECO Chemicals, Intermountain Research and Engineering Company (IRECO—founded in 1958) pioneered the early development of slurry explosives under a contract from the Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOCC) who owned the original Cook and Farnam invention... [Pg.397]

One of the most significant events in explosives history has been the development of the IRECO Chemicals Site-Mixed-Slurry (SMS) system, commonly referred to as the pump truck system, which is today the safest blasting system known. Nonexplosive raw materials are carried by the pump truck from the storage area to the borehole site where they then become an explosive capable... [Pg.398]

In 1966 fifty percent of the capital stock of IRECO Chemicals was acquired by the Rio Tinto-Zinc Corporation, Ltd, a worldwide association of mining and related industrial enterprises such as ore processing, smelting, fabricating metals, and the production of chemicals. Since that time IRECO Chemicals has continued to grow and is today the world leader in the research, manufacture and marketing of slurry explosives with operations in important mining centers the world over...
