For most rock engineering projects, it is required to characterise not only the intact rock, but also the rock mass as a whole, and this
We have seen in the previous topics that discontinuities are critical for the behavior of a rock mass. Hence, for most engineering projects, it’s important
In this topic, we will present two important aspects of discontinuities, namely the roughness and shear strength. These two properties are critical when it comes
In this topic, we’ll present you some of the laboratory tests that can be performed to infer rock materials strength. It is important for you
In topic one, we introduced stress and strain. These 2 variables are related because application of a stress results in a strain. In this topic,
Mining is a temporary land use, so having found, evaluated, designed, planned and operated that mine in a safe environmentally responsible way. It remains or
After beneficiation we now need to focus on the storage handling, and transport of the mined product which can be ore or coal to get
This is an overview of setting up and conducting a flotation rate test. The test is a means of determining the flotation characteristics of an
