  • MNGN 405: Rock Mechanics in Mining

    3.00 Credits
    Colorado School of Mines

    The course deals with the rock mechanics aspect of design of mine layouts developed in both underground and surface. Underground mining sections includes design of coal and hard rock pillars, mine layout design for tabular and massive ore bodies, assessment of caving characteristics of ore bodies, performance and application of backfill, and phenomenon of rock burst and its alleviation. Surface mining portion covers rock mass characterization, failure modes of slopes excavated in rock masses, probabilistic and deterministic approaches to design of slopes, and remedial measures for slope stability problems. Prerequisite: MNGN321 or equivalent. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
