Numerical Modeling and Monitoring of a Complicated Void Zone in Zijinshan GoldCopper Mine

Abstract

Abstract: After years of the underground mining in Zijinshan GoldCopper Mine, mining voids have developed directly underneath the production zone. Mining voids are the safety hazard to the open pit mining operation. This paper presents the stability numerical analysis and insitu monitoring results. The mining voids can be characterized from the stability analysis and monitoring therefore, these activities provide a safety guide to the open pit mining operation.

Key words: Mining Voids, Numerical Analysis, Rock Mass Stability, Stability Monitoring
