Abstract

This paper presents the state of the art of geotechnical engineering issues involved in mining. Of the two methods of extracting ores from the ground, open cut mining and underground mining, this paper concerns itself with the latter: it gives a broad overview of the salient issues related to underground mining with special emphasis on hydraulic backfilling approach.
