Contributions to Rock Fracture Induced by High Ground Stress in Deep

In deep underground mining, the bearing capacity of rock determines whether the surrounding rock breaks, which is the most critical factor in controlling the stability of surrounding rock. Selecting the appropriate strength criterion is the key to correctly calculating rock fracture, and incorrectly calculating the critical conditions for rock ...

The Actual Difference Between Surface and Underground Mining

Surface mining is suitable for large, low-grade ore deposits which occur below a thin layer of rock, or alluvial deposits found in sand and riverbeds. Underground mining is used for small, high-grade deposits covered with a thick overburden (soil and rock above the ore), or for deep and sloping deposits. General Process
