Commercial Explosives Antitrust Litigation
(In re Commercial Explosives Antitrust Litigation, MDL 1093 (D. Utah 1996))

This litigation began in 1992 when the U.S. Department of Justice started its investigation of the explosives industry. In 1995, two of the biggest explosives manufacturers pled guilty to conspiring to fix prices, rig bids, and allocate customers. They paid criminal fines of $15 Million and $10 Million, respectively. This case, which is one of the largest litigations in the mining industry, reported public settlements alone of $75 Million. We assisted potential claimants in filing for settlement.
