New geochronological constraints on Late Pleistocene glaciation in the southern Cadí Massif, SE Pyrenees

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

Behaviors of overlying strata in extra-thick coal seams using top-coal caving method

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2016
Accidents such as support failure and excessive deformation of roadways due to drastic changes in strata behaviors are frequently reported when mining the extra-thick coal seams Nos.

Failure Mechanism of Horizontal Layered Rock Slope under the Coupling of Earthquake and Weathering

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
In order to further reveal the dynamic failure process of horizontal complex layered rock slope in the coupling action of earthquake and weathering, based on the three-dimensional particle flow software PFC3D, the rock triaxial test was first carried out

Prediction of the main caving span in longwall mining using fuzzy MCDM technique and statistical method

open access: yes, 2018
Immediate roof caving in longwall mining is a complex dynamic process, and it is the core of numerous issues and challenges in this method. Hence, a reliable prediction of the strata behavior and its caving potential is imperative in the planning stage ...

Managing and visualising geochemical data for tephra correlation with the IntChron Integration Tool

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is now a wealth of glass‐shard geochemical data for volcanic ash (tephra) layers from a wide range of volcanoes and eruptions, providing invaluable datasets for tephrochronology. However, compilation of published data to assess tephra correlations leads to large files and requires careful management.

3D large scale physical modelling for studying interactive drawing and drawpoint spacing in block caving mines [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2004
In block caving mines, the gravity flow of caved (broken) ore controls the amount of valuable material recovered and the extent to which it is diluted by caved waste rock.

Feasibility of Broken Ore Flow Simulation in Block Caving Mining Method Using Attribute Stochastic Medium Theory

open access: yes, 2022
In this paper, to reveal the flow characteristics of broken mineral-rock of block caving, we present the Attribute Stochastic Medium Theory that combines an attribute block model with stochastic medium theory.

Carbon isotope geochemistry of organic matter in volcanic paleosols constrains paleo‐environmental variations

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fiorano quarry paleosol developed within the Colli Albani volcanic district (Italy) in the time interval bracketed by the deposition of the Pozzolanelle pyroclastic‐flow unit (365 ± 4 ka) and the emplacement of the Capo di Bove lava flow (277 ± 2 ka).

Cave-to-mill : mine and mill integration for block cave mines

open access: yes, 2018
Population growth and economic development are expected to increase future global copper demand. The depletion of significant near-surface deposits and advances in detecting deeply buried ore has led to the mining industry progressively exploring further below the surface to discover new copper deposits. Accordingly, block and panel cave mining methods

Determination of the Optimum Crown Pillar Thickness Between Open Pit and Block Caving [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, a relationship between dependant parameters and the crown pillar thickness is first introduced. This relationship defines geotechnical problems caused by thin pillars and economic considerations created by pillars that are thicker than the
