簡介 Intro
該項中的鑽探工人操作移動鑽孔機實施露天礦和採石場的鑽孔爆破以及建築工地的建築物基礎設施的爆破工作。爆破員用炸藥填補爆破洞，然後引爆炸藥，提煉出煤炭、礦石和岩石或者粉碎建築物。他們受僱於採礦，採石和建築公司，也受僱於鑽孔和爆破承包商。
Drillers in this unit group operate mobile drilling machines to bore blast holes in open-pit mines and quarries and to bore holes for blasting and for building foundations at construction sites. Blasters in this unit group fill blast holes with explosives and detonate explosives to dislodge coal , ore and rock or to demolish structures. They are employed by mining, quarrying and construction companies and by drilling and blasting contractors.
鑽井工人和爆破手經常進行鑽探及爆破活動。
Drillers and blasters often perform both drilling and blasting activities.
隨著經驗積累，可能晉升為主管。
Progression to supervisory positions is possible with experience.
