Zusammenfassung:A system/apparatus including: at least one control system or control unit configured for changing a concentration / flow rate of a set of sensitizing agents for an explosive composition, wherein the sensitizing agents are introduced at or into at least one portion of an explosive composition loading system or apparatus in a manner that facilitates or enables generation of two or more explosive compositions having at least one density profile / distribution, wherein the changing of the concentration / flow rate provides the sensitizing agents with a concentration profile / distribution within and along a conduit / hose during flow of the explosive compositions toward and prior to the explosive compositions reaching a distal portion of the conduit / hose that is fluidically coupled to an outlet structure, wherein the concentration profile / distribution corresponds to the density profile / distribution.
