Abstract
It is shown that the elastic properties of a massif can be used in the explosion-driven displacement of a loose material, which enables savings in energy. The desired effect is attained by taking into account the specific features of wave processes in the massif and by choosing the rational delay time, i.e., the interval between the explosions of subsequent charges.
