Is it safe to delete .dmp files in the Program directory?

Firefox Troubleshooting

I found a rather large .dmp file located in my Firefox install directory: c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\core.20130617.XXXXXX.XXXXX.XXXX.dmp It appears that the core file is tagged with a date stamp; the subsequent "X's" are other numerical digits but I'm masking those out since I'm not sure they're relevant. Is it safe to remove this? Note that this file doesn't appear in about:crashes.

Delete it and reboot the computer, make sure firefox is not open, as windows usually makes those when you get BSOD's.
