E-Book Overview

Western Australia, Departament of Mines and Petrolium, 2009. 23 p Инструкция по геомеханическому (геотехническому) аудиту на карьерах Департамента Горного дела и нефти Правительства Западной Австралии Первоисточник www.dmp.wa.gov.au The scope of this audit is designed to cover the standards associated with the safe development, operation and closure of open pit operations from a geotechnical perspective Where site specific circumstances do not warrant an in depth ground control management plan e.g. shallow 2-month life mine with one material type, then the mine should have a formal geotechnical statement that justifies their approach. References to interviewing a consultant geotechnical specialist in this audit only apply to those mines that employ the services of such specialists. Where, in the intent, the word verify is used, this means that it is a regulatory requirement, which is mandatory and has to be complied with. Where, in the intent, the word ensure is used, it is not a mandatory requirement, but it does set out a recommended safe method which, if followed, should minimise the potential for an adverse incident to take place The audit is split up into sections covering mine planning and design, operation, drill and blast, rock reinforcement, quality control, design confirmation/back analysis and training This audit does not cover underground operations as these standards are included in the Geotechnical Considerations HIF Audit (Underground). This audit should be read and utilised in conjunction with the guideline entitled Geotechnical Considerations in Open Pit Mines provided on the department website in the mining publications section <strong>Contents: Introduction Mine planning and design General operational issues Drill and blast Rock reinforcement Quality control and monitoring Design confirmation / back analysis Training and competency
