The Sari Club and two other buildings were destroyed, and hundreds of people killed or maimed.
The strength of the explosion hurled a tire from the minibus 100 meters (330 feet) up the street, the Daily Telegraph said. Its axle
was found on the roof of a building 30 meters (100 feet) from the bombsite.
The Australian newspaper reported that tests showed that four substances may have been used in the explosive device -- C4,
RDX, AMX and nitrate.
RDX is short for the specialized explosive material cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, a substance used often by engineers to cut
through steel columns.
RDX-based explosive compounds expand at a very high rate of speed, the high velocity allowing it to slice through steel.
The Telegraph report said that investigators intended to cross-check samples from the Bali blasts to see if it is of the same variety
as the explosives used on the USS Cole two years ago or the materials intended for a foiled bomb attack on the U.S. Embassy in
Singapore.
