This study has demonstrated that artificial concrete pillars can stabilize the active stopes, especially in broader sections of the orebodies intercepted with geotechnical challenges such as high-stress change, spalling, slabbing, sloughing, etc. FLAC3D numerical code was successfully used to...

Since 1995, Konkola Mine No.1 Shaft in Zambia has been experiencing increased seismic activity, leading to more rockburst incidents, which could present significant safety and production challenges at deeper levels. This study aimed to develop tools to predict rockburst from microseismic and...
