He was joined by a former navy officer, E. O. McAlister, who had had wartime experience with under« water demolitions. Mr. McAlister is now in charge of the continuing experiments. The most efficient charge for min« ing purposes, it was discovered, is a block of ordinary blasting explosive with a hemispherical cavity in the face to be set against the rock. A little space, or “stand-off distance,” between charge and rock improves efficiency. Preliminary results, largely on big boulders on the floor and hanging rock “fingers” overhead, have been highly encouraging. Only a frac-
