RIOPRIMEMINI PRIMER
RIOPRIME

RIOPRIME is a high energy mini


primer designed to produce high
velocity of detonation and high
detonation pressure, ensuring
reliable initiation of bulk and
cartridge explosives such as
RIOFLEX, RIOMEX, RIOXAM and
RIOGEL in underground non-
flamable environments.

RIOPRIME has been designed to
improve the charging work. The
introduction of the detonator in the
the mini primer, makes charging into
the bottom of the hole a more
secure, faster and easier process, 2
also ensuring detonation of bulk
products.
