Mining explosive (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gelignite

(Other definitions for gelignite that I've seen before include "High explosive" , "(E.g. quarry) explosive" , "source of flare-up" , "Explosive used in mining" , "Tieing leg up in explosive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
