Stability Analysis and Optimized Slope Angle for the Iron Ore Open-Pit Mine
Akdağ, S.; Başarır, H.; Karpuz, Celal; Özyurt, M. (2015-04-17)
With an increase in the overall slope height of open pit mines, stability analysis and amount of stripping waste rock becomes progressively difficult. It is necessary to optimize the overall slope angle by increasing it as much as possible with ensuring the mining safety. After comprehensive geotechnical investigation and rock mechanical laboratory tests, the combined use of limit equilibrium and numerical modeling analysis methods increases reliability and accuracy of the stability analysis. With the optim...
Stability analyses of the dump site culvert in Tınaz surface mine
Özcan, Ömer Can; Ünal, Erdal; Department of Mining Engineering (2003)
In this thesis, studies associated with the stability analyses of the box-shaped dump-site culvert constructed in Tınaz Surface Mine of Turkish Coal Enterprises (TKİ) are presented. In addition, stability conditions of other culvert alternatives are evaluated. Existence of creeks in a surface mining area is a significant factor to be considered in selection of dump-site location. Since, the dumped overburden material on the valley acts as a barrier and behaves like a dam causing flood problem behind the dum...
Stability investigation of Eti borax mine Hisarcık tailing dam using finite element analysis
Mokhtari, Pozhhan; Düzgün, H. Şebnem; Department of Mining Engineering (2014)
Today, with modern technological developments, the need for raw materials has also increased, which resulted in the development of mining industry. Therefore, there should be a plan for tailing storage and constructing a reliable tailing dam to store waste materials. In this study, the current and reckoning condition of the height rising in Hisarcik tailing dam is investigated for any potential stability problems. This tailing dam is one of the main tailing impoundments in Emet Borax mine, which is located ...
Stability investigation of Eti Copper Mine tailings dam using finite element analysis
Tanrıseven, Esra Nur; Bilgin, Hasan Aydın; Department of Mining Engineering (2012)
In mining industry, waste storage is a very prominent issue; in this respect, safety of storage structures is one of the leading problems in the industry. Most of the tailings dams require remedial measures, throughout their lifespan to increase their reliability. The objective of the study is to investigate stability problems of formerly constructed but newly raised Eti Copper Mine tailings dam and alternative dam geometries for future raises. Plenty of methods were developed to analyze the reliability of ...
