What does MUDCAP mean in Scrabble?
verb
technical
To break a boulder or rock by covering an explosive charge laid on its surface with a packing of wet clay or mud.
Mudcapping is a quick way of splitting a large stone without drilling into it. The blaster sets the charge on the rock and plasters mud over it so that the blast is driven into the stone instead of upward. It is noisy and wasteful of explosive, so it is mostly used for odd boulders in quarries and clearing work.
