SRK assisted Mandalay's Björkdal operation by studying the slope steepening potential of several pit cutbacks. This involved compiling the geotechnical dataset, photogrammetrically mapping current slopes to analyse design options, assessing the pit construction processes to achieve steeper slope angles, as well as reduce waste stripping plus audit the underground narrow vein stoping operation. Both projects involved integrating and training site engineers to improve the operation's geotechnical function.
SRK performed drilling supervision, geological logging, hydrogeological testwork and project support.
The modelling uniquely involved assessing interactions between the open pit and underground mines
Assessment of geomechanics risk, including for waste rock dumps and open pit walls.
Supported the excavation of one of the longest tunnels in the world using double-shielded TBM.
This is the first part in what will be a multi-part series outlining some of the limitations imposed by trying to fit machine learning algorithms to traditional rock mass classification systems
