Norwegian term or phrase: grunnsprengt
"Arbeidene omfatter rensk, avretting og justering av planum på grunnsprengt fjell, samt utkilinger."

I found this, which describes the process somewhat: "Ved grunnsprengning skal berget bores, sprenges og lastes ut til et nivå under forsterkningslaget som sikrer drenering og avrenning."

I'm toying with "surface blasting" but I'm not getting a big charge out of that yet ...

Reference: Grunnsprengning

Reference information:
I understand it means blasting down to a certain surface. I would come up with a term, but not sure about "løssprengning"
