People like to complain about how much the workers are payed, and they are payed exactly or close to the rate the mineral is worth. You don't understand the cost behind the logistic of transporting that stuff across the world. If they payed miners nearly the price of every kilo of graphite, there wouldn't be any money to be made. In fact, most Americans are already use to this. Do you think you make anywhere near what your boss makes HA! Not even close. Stop being a care bear for once in your life and think with your head. Supply and demand, rise and fall, as do the logistic costs of minerals.

Graphite can also be made by Carbon Capture Technology, that actively captures CO² from the atmosphere and dissociates it in to graphite and pure oxygen that could be released. That technology could reverse global warming.

I believe the fluid acts as a weak blast prohibitor. If every nook and cranny inside the wall is full of water, the explosion will be more powerful as it cant escape through seams. Water or not it's a big boom.

This video is full of less-than-factual narrations throughout the entire video. It was obvious in the mine scene where the narrator says the worker used a drill "to inject water and stabilize the rock", which he just plain isn't - he's drilling holes in the rock using a water-damped drill to keep rock dust from killing him. The "wires" on the "dynamite" were lit with a naked flame and are obviously fuses, not wires. How many other things can we find wrong with this video?
