Kimberlite fracture by prompt microwave-heating

Report is devoted to research processes of kimberlite fracture by their superprompt microwave heating. The processes of kimberlite fracture are considered and the fracture mechanisms are determined. The kimberlite dielectric performances are studied. The results of fracture processes studied on installation of resonator type with microwave power 600 W are presented. The basic characteristics of kimberlite fracture processes are defined. Executed efficacy estimations of kimberlite fracture by microwave heating indicate prospects of this new method.
