Abstract

A method for using the thermal energy released by the detonation of a nuclear explosive device, for the recovery of valuable components of an underground deposit of non-metallic mineral, by conversion thereof, at least partially, into gaseous pyrolysis products, comprising prepare an underground detonation chamber in a geological formation comprising a non-metallic mineral that can be brought to pyrolytic decomposition, the underground detonation chamber being prepared to a sufficient depth, so that the superjacent mass of earth contains the force of a nuclear explosion of predetermined magnitude, detonating a nuclear device in the detonation underground chamber, thereby heating an approximately spheroidal zone around the detonation chamber, to a temperature high enough to effect a pyrolytic decomposition of at least partial said mineral to a product g aseptic and form fissures and fractures in which pyrolysis products accumulate, drill a series of wells to a depth sufficient to penetrate these fissures and fractures and recover pyrolysis products through said wells.
