An Overview of Slope Failure in Mining Operations

The primary aim of every twenty-first century mining operation is to extract as much ore possible in a safe and economical manner. Failure mine excavation occurs when the shear stress acting on rock greater than strength mass. stability slopes open-pit quarry operations extremely important from both economic safety points view because unstable can result loss human life damage properties. This paper presents an overview several case studies slope failure explains various modes slopes, well factors that influence walls. With enforcing importance monitoring evaluating mining, linear equilibrium numerical modeling techniques were reviewed elaborate their designing stable slopes. In addition, process was discussed, key signs indicated. effort prevent mines experiencing hazards failure, this study reports previous work performed determining current state-of-the-art models, which entail integration analytical methods with artificial intelligence techniques. innovation would help overcome drawbacks conventional prediction are cumbersome ambiguous.
