3 INDUSTRIES WE SERVE: METAL & MINERAL MINING WHO WE ARE LEGACY: INNOVATION INNOVATION LINEAGE COAL MINING QUARRY & STONE CONSTRUCTION & PIPELINE OIL & GAS EXPLORATION OUR VALUES Our Company Value, Zero Harm for Everyone Everywhere, reflects our commitment to the highest standards of safety, ensuring the well-being of our people, both at work and at home. 180 YEARS OF PRACTICAL INNOVATION Our groundbreaking technological developments have shaped the modern explosives industry more than any other effort in history. Safety Fuse Dynamite Blasting Cap AGRICULTURE & INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS 1936 Detonating cord Water-based slurry explosives 1956 COMPLETE BLASTING EXPERTISE 1960 Site mixed pump trucks for slurry explosives RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT NONEL detonator 1973 ENGINEERING MANUFACTURING DISTRIBUTION BLASTING SERVICES CUSTOMER VALUE CHAIN OPTIMIZATION CUSTOMER SUPPORT Alfred Nobel William Bickford Our legacy of safety innovation began in 1865 with Swedish inventor, Alfred Nobel, whose invention of dynamite and blasting caps, saved the lives of countless miners, as did William Bickford s invention of the safety fuse in Previously, miners were exposed to the dangers of black powder and nitroglycerin. We are DYNOMINER DYNOBULK End-of-Hose gassing Bulk and packaged emulsion TITAN bulk emulsion explosives Modular Emulsion Plants proud of this legacy and strive every day to continue the tradition of safety innovation. Electronic initiation systems ,800 patents developed 2008 DYNOBULK XL Jumbo trucks 230 patents currently in force TITAN Differential Energy 2012 Groundbreaking Performance Through Practical Innovation 2014 DriftShot Electronic Initiation system

4 REAL RESULTS FULL CUSTOMER VALUE CHAIN EXPERTISE COMMITTED PARTNERSHIP: To ensure our customers are well-equipped to compete in today s market, we are their reliable and collaborative partner, committed to optimizing their production efficiency, reducing their operating costs and improving their final product quality. 160% INCREASE IN CRUSHER THROUGHPUT 8% IMPROVEMENT IN SHOVEL PRODUCTIVITY ELIMINATED NO X 18% REDUCTION IN POWDER FACTOR 21% REDUCTION IN FINES PLANNING 11% IMPROVEMENT IN FACE ADVANCE PRE-CRUSHING BLAST DESIGN DRILLING PRODUCT SUPPLY PRE-CRUSHING OPTIMIZATION Optimizing the blasting results has proven to show significant downstream improvements on moving and crushing, reducing overall costs and increasing production output. BLASTING MUCKING HAULING Improve fragmentation Reduce fi nes and oversize Manage vibration Reduce scaling Improve wall stability Abate post blast fumes Improve diggability Reduce fuel consumption Improve cycle time Optimize crusher throughput CRUSHING

5 RIGHT TIMING INITIATION SYSTEMS We operate 5 initiation system manufacturing facilities in North America. NONELECTRIC INITIATION: Our ELECTRIC INITIATION: Our ELECTRIC NONEL detonator is the original patented SUPER electric detonator is proven by nonelectric detonator. generations of blasters and is the original electric blasting cap. ELECTRONIC INITIATION Electronic delay timing is much more precise and accurate than pyrotechnic delay timing. Electronic delay timing can dramatically improve blasting results from fragmentation and vibration to wall stability and overall blasting safety. VIEWSHOT BLAST DESIGN SOFTWARE: The industry s premier standalone blast design software packages, containing full design and diagnostic tools. Small blasts, surface and underground Large blasts, surface and underground ELECTRONIC TAGGER: The industry's most durable and easy-touse tagger. Designed for electronic initiation testing, tagging, timing and sequencing. CAST BOOSTERS: Our TROJAN cast boosters provide reliable initiation of nondetonator-sensitive blasting agents. We are the only North American producer of PETN used in cast boosters, detonators and detonating cord. DETONATING CORD: Our PRIMACORD is the world s most wellknown and reliable detonating cord brand. Underground development and tunneling Geophysical exploration BLASTWEB UNDERGROUND NETWORKING SYSTEM: The most sophisticated underground mining centralized electronic networking system available. Designed to save time in production and development blasting.

6 RIGHT ENERGY PACKAGED PRODUCTS BAGGED ANFO: Our bagged ANFO is a prilled ammonium nitrate and fuel oil explosive, with a wide variety of applications in dry hole blasting conditions. PACKAGED EMULSION EXPLOSIVES: We manufacture a wide variety of packaged emulsion explosives. All products are detonator or booster sensitive with excellent water resistance. BULK PRODUCTS BULK EXPLOSIVES We are the innovator in bulk emulsion technology. AMMONIUM NITRATE (AN): AN is the primary ingredient in many explosives and AMMONIUM NITRATE/FUEL OIL (ANFO) fertilizers. We manufacture a quality of ammonium nitrate prill that, in addition to having high performance characteristics, also utilizes an internal additive and external coating that are compatible with all TITAN BULK EMULSIONS emulsions explosives. Differential Energy TITAN BULK EXPLOSIVES DIFFERENTIAL ENERGY ( E) Our newest innovative technology accurately controls the placement of explosive energy in the borehole to improve safety, solve environmental concerns and maximize productivity. We own 33% of North America s installed AN capacity We manufacture over 1 million tons annually TITAN is the most effi cient way to break large masses of rock. Our proprietary formulations are tailored to specifi c geologic conditions and customer needs. DYNAMITE: We are the ONLY manufacturer in North America. Nitroglycerine (NG) based explosives performs reliably in extreme conditions. A COMPLETE LINE OF PACKAGED PRODUCTS FOR: Surface Blasting Underground Blasting TITAN 1000: Premium bulk emulsion designed for surface blasting applications TITAN 5000: Designed for pyritic ground TITAN 7000: Designed for underground applications TITAN 9000xero : Designed for NO X fume abatement TITAN AUGERABLE BLENDS Geophysical Exploration TITAN PUMPABLE BLENDS TITAN ΔE BULK EMULSION: Specifi cally designed emulsion explosive that can have variable energy densities DYNOBULK ΔE TRUCK: Proprietary technology that allows for accurate placement of explosive energy

7 RIGHT TECHNOLOGY SURFACE DELIVERY EQUIPMENT MODULAR EMULSION PLANTS: Our unique containerized design reduces cost and allows for easier relocation. These are built in a controlled environment for fast deployment to remote sites and are compatible with a wide variety of AN sources. DYNOBULK ANFO: Large, dry, coal and metal mines DYNOBULK HEAVY: Augered blends for large coal mines and quarries DYNOBULK ANFO DYNOMINER SHAFT DYNOBULK TRIPLE: TITAN bulk emulsions, TITAN blends, and ANFO Differential Energy capable DYNOBULK XL: TITAN bulk emulsions, for a variety of applications Differential Energy capable DYNOBULK HEAVY DYNOMINER ADVANCE DYNOBULK SME: Site mixed emulsion bulk trucks eliminate the transportation of an explosive Tropical Site Differential Energy capable UNDERGROUND DELIVERY EQUIPMENT DYNOBULK TRIPLE DYNOMINER PROFILE DYNOMINER SHAFT: Shaft sinking applications DYNOMINER ADVANCE: Mine development applications: development Arctic Site headings and string loading for perimeter holes DYNOMINER PROFILE: Mine production applications: uphole and downhole DYNOMINER TRIDENT : Uphole, downhole and development headings, DYNOBULK XL DYNOMINER TRIDENT MODULAR NONEL ASSEMBLY EQUIPMENT: Our specialized, modular production and assembly equipment for NONEL shock tube detonators allows for onsite NONEL assembly. including string loading for perimeter holes DYNOBULK SME
