Carbon dioxide rock blasting works by storing CO2 in a sealed cartridge as a liquid and then rapidly converting it into gas inside a drilled borehole. When triggered, the liquid expands many times in volume, building enough internal pressure to fracture stone without the shockwave of an explosive. The cracks follow natural weaknesses and drilled patterns, giving workers control over how the rock breaks. This method is used in mining, construction, and quarrying, especially where vibration, noise
