Geotechnical assessment of rock masses in metallic mineral deposits, a view on the “hidden” issues in open-pit design

Abstract: Defining rock mass geotechnical properties is a critical step in the process of open-pit slope design. Geotechnical engineers assess the frequently highly altered rocks of metallic mineral deposits by applying standardized geotechnical classifications primarily developed for underground mining operations or design of civil structures such as tunnels and cut slopes. In some cases, the projects do not consider additional aspects of the rock masses, such as: zoning according to rock mass alteration schemes, predi… Show more
