[DS] Minefield clearing pondering

G'day guys,

I read an article in New Scientist recently about a proposed mine type
that 
rearranges itself so it can't be cleared. This set me to wondering about

whether you could use an air-burst to clear minefields. Is it plausible?

The Daleks have taken to using mines laid by ortillery as a means of 
slowing their opponents down so I was wondering if this was actually a 
plausible way for my opponents to clear the minefields (which means I'll

have to think up another way of slowing them down, drat!).

Cheers

Beth
