English translation:charge concentration linear
Explanation:

The Finnish term is, by my mind, awkwardly formed, not anyhow self-explanatory, It seems to mean how much explosive is charged per linear unit of drill hole (e.g. kg/m). I found at least one English equivalent ‘charge concentration linear’. Check the ”ski-long” (the Finnish way to express it) link below.

There are many occurrences of ‘panostusaste’ in the Net, among others those giving its explanation. For example this one:

"Panostusaste
Panostusasteella tarkoitetaan suuretta, joka määrittelee, paljonko räjähdysainetta on porareiässä porametriä kohden (räjähdysainemäärä/porametrit)(kg/m). Panostusasteen suuruus riippuu porausreikäläpimitasta ja siitä, kuinka täyteen reikä pystytään panostamaan. (Vuolio 2008, 89.)"
