Investigation into the rock mass response to pillar extraction in a hard rock tabular mine
Historically, secondary pillar extraction has been successful in the soft rock mining environment. Several hard rock platinum mines have conducted selective remnant extraction with backfill as a regional support measure. A hard rock tabular platinum mine

Research on Damage Evolution Mechanism of Layered Rock Mass under Blasting Load
Rock mass consists of many discontinuities, such as faults, joints, etc., and layered joints are a common kind of rock mass structure. The joints affect the stress wave propagation, and blasting is an economical and efficient rock fragmentation method ...

Proceedings of the International Workshop on Rock Mass Classification in Underground Mining
"Rock mass classification is widely used throughout the underground mining industry--in both coal and hardrock mines. It is used in all stages of the mining process, from site characterization to production operations.

A rock mass rating system for predicting TBM utilization
Prediction of utilization based on rock mass properties is critical for any mechanized tunneling project, since the utilization have an influence on duration and costs of project. Using some case studies including Queens, Milyang, Manapouri, Karaj, Varzo,

Comparison of Rock Mass Classification Systems in Estimating the Strength of a Rock Mass
This thesis is a comparative study for assessing the strength of a rock mass through rock mass classification systems, empirical estimations, and geotechnical modelling software, against real-world data. Often, geotechnical engineers are unable to estimate the strength of a rock mass with absolute certainty.
