Patent

CA 2621259

A method for fracturing a solid material is disclosed. The method comprises boring at least one bore hole in the solid material, the bore hole having a bottom and an open top. Reactive materials capable of an exothermic reaction to produce a liquid and a gas are introduced into the bore hole. The bore hole is then sealed at the open top. The exothermic reaction is then initiated to produce the liquid and the gas. The pressures generated by the liquid and gas in the bore hole result in fracturing of the solid material.

L~invention concerne un procédé de rupture d~un matériau solide. Ce procédé comprend le perçage d~au moins un trou de forage dans le matériau solide, ledit trou de forage ayant un fond et un haut ouvert. Des matériaux réactifs capables de donner lieu à une réaction exothermique produisant un liquide et un gaz sont introduits dans le trou de forage. Le trou de forage est ensuite scellé au niveau du haut ouvert. La réaction exothermique est alors initiée afin de produire le liquide et le gaz. Les pressions générées par le liquide et le gaz dans le trou de forage entraînent la rupture du matériau solide.
