Covered the story of creation, formation and development of specialized enterprise “Uralvzryvprom” to perform a set of special blasting in quarries aggregates and construction materials for the construction of canals, railways, roads, ditches, trenches, workings of other construction and in industrial buildings and in urban areas and etc. Shown good cooperation business with the Institute of Mining for improving the technique and technology of special blasting. Indicated by the further development of the explosive case in the Urals.
Now qualification engineers explosives in the Ural region is high. In this longstanding experience of special blasting allows technicians to solve any tasks, regardless of what objects are near the explosion. Unique methods allow for explosions near the highrise residential buildings without damage. Recently, however, the prestige of the engineer blaster has dropped significantly. Educational institutions produce professionals in the labor market is less than that required to meet the growing amount of blasting. Therefore, in the Urals, established non-profit partnership between the organizations working in the field of explosive case. The purpose of this organization is to consolidate the efforts of the business of science and education to promote the profession of engineer explosives.

The article is made ready on the results of investigations performed within the framework of the UB RAS inter-disciplinary project No. 12-M-23457-2041 “Earth mineral resources development: the prospects of expansion and all-round mineral raw material base development of the Urals mining-metallurgical complex”.
