                DYNAMIC MATERIALS RECEIVES $7.5 MILLION CONTRACT
                   FOR WORK ON NORTH AMERICAN REFINERY PROJECT

    Order will Involve the Company's Domestic and European Explosion Welding
                                   Facilities

BOULDER, Colo. - Dec. 6, 2005 - Dynamic Materials Corporation (DMC) (Nasdaq:
BOOM), the world's leading provider of explosion-welded clad metal plates and
associated services, today announced it has received a $7.5 million contract
calling for the production and delivery of clad metal plates for use in a North
American refinery project. DMC will utilize its domestic and European clad metal
production facilities to fill the order, which is scheduled for delivery during
the first two quarters of 2006.

Yvon Cariou, president and CEO of DMC, said, "The domestic refining industry is
investing heavily in capacity expansion and modernization programs. Because oil
and gas refining is an intense and highly corrosive process, many components
incorporate corrosion-resistant clad metals. As the global leader in explosive
metal cladding, DMC is well positioned to benefit from this increased level of
investment activity."
