We make mining easier

About us

Our journey began in 2014 with a simple, yet significant insight. Mine operators often found themselves caught between the limitations of larger blasting providers that couldn't provide the personalised service they needed, and smaller operators, which lacked the full suite of blasting capabilities. Recognising a need in the market, we brought together a team of industry experts to solve the problem. And so, Platinum Blasting Services was born. Platinum offers all your blasting needs, with a Platinum service you can’t get anywhere else. It’s how we make mining easier at numerous operations across Australia and why we’ve grown to become one of the leading blasting providers to the mining industry in just a decade.

  • No matter the size or shape, we’ve got you covered! This pattern posed complex geological challenges. To handle it effectively, a centre-lift initiation design was utilised for efficient, effective blasting results. 💥 #PlatinumService #WeMakeMiningEasier #PlatinumBlasting #MiningIndustry #MiningNews #BlastingServices

  • With an unconventional 45-degree softwall face, this recent blast at Foxleigh Mine called for precisely designed, double stitched angled holes to achieve even fracturing and movement of the overburden material. Our team tackled challenges head-on, loading 1,800t full column S2-50 and S2-70 and firing within 15 days.    This blast marked Foxleigh Mine’s 15th blast using AXXIS electronic titanium detonators, offering additional flexibility and enhanced safety features over traditional non-el to ensure accuracy in tricky conditions. A big shoutout to our Foxleigh Mine team for their can-do attitude and outstanding effort! #PlatinumService #WeMakeMiningEasier #PlatinumBlasting #MiningIndustry #MiningNews #BlastingServices #FoxleighMine

  • We love watching blasts from afar – but what about up close and personal? Witness our Hydra Emulsion doing its job! As each hole initiates in its carefully choreographed sequence, the material is pulled, stretched and lifted. The result? Perfect rock! 🪨 #PlatinumService #WeMakeMiningEasier #PlatinumBlasting #MiningIndustry #MiningNews #BlastingServices

    The goal of this blast Bravus Mining & Resources Carmichael mine was to optimise excavator productivity by minimising material movement, achieved through a 'stand-up' approach. With angled holes and controlled relief, the team’s out-of-the-box design thinking and loading practices led to exceptional post-blast profile and digability. #PlatinumService #WeMakeMiningEasier #PlatinumBlasting #MiningIndustry #MiningNews #BlastingServices Bravus Mining & Resources
