Outcome<br />
With all of the various permits in place<br />
to undertake the work, a countermining<br />
charge was placed beside the World<br />
War II mine and detonated acoustically.<br />
The small detonation causes the mine<br />
to sympathetically detonate, thereby<br />
consuming all the explosives and<br />
vaporising the case.<br />
Less than 48 hours since the initial<br />
meeting the, UXO had been successfully<br />
disposed of.<br />
in excess<br />
of 60,000<br />
munitions<br />
remain<br />
unaccounted<br />
for in the<br />
North Sea<br />
