Old dynamite sweats nitroglycerin so that stuff is probably some kind of crystallized nitroglycerin. Good news is that kind of thing is definitely not your problem to deal with, call the bomb squad and they will take it from there.

when i was a kid, like 13 or 14, a family friend took me to the Michigan UP, to his hunting cabin, as a get-away from home after my dad died. Nice place, like an hour of two track off pavement with a river crossing, real middle of nowhere place.

He was prepping for deer season and started a fire and was burning stuff to get rid of it. He was a heavy construction specialist - digging/boring/blasting type of poo poo. walks over with a few sticks of dynamite and tells me how since they're sweating (i could see what looked like tiny water droplets on them), they aren't any good anymore, and drops them on the fire. He said they wouldn't detonate without a blasting cap and that this was perfectly safe. i sat there and watched them burn.

i still think about this occasionally 30 years after it happened.

Yeah, I took a blasting course in college and same thing, the instructor told us you can burn the poo poo out of dynamite, but like keep it away from blasting caps and poo poo.

That goes out the window once it starts sweating nitroglycerin, which is way more sensitive to everything once it’s leaked out of the binder.

I had a fun failure at work like this but slightly bigger. One of our water tanks had a float fail, so the tank was slowly overflowing. The wires that ran from the float in the tank ran inside through waterproof conduit to the electrical control panel. That panel was mounted lower than the top of the tank, so it was slowly siphoning water through the conduit into the panel.

do the bomb squad let you watch them detonate the sweating dynamite or do they make you stay inside out of "safety" so you dont get to see something explode?

I guess we might find out tomorrow because the person said they were calling the authorities tomorrow morning. But I would assume for something like that they would evacuate the surrounding houses just in case.

From a safety and insurance/responsibility perspective I'd say there is no way they would let you stay anywhere near the process. Far easier to move you the gently caress away.
