Mining activities may result in rock mass deterioration and
instability that may lead to failure both in underground and open
pit mines. Such deterioration represents a safety risk and may
result in substantial financial losses. Rock mass response may lead
to ground subsidence, fall of ground/caving, inundation, pillar
collapse, seismic activities and slope and tailings dam
instability. Each response is preceded by warning signs and
precursors, which are identified in this book, with a view to
providing guidelines for prediction and amelioration of damage to
mining structures. Furthermore, case studies of both large scale
ground deterioration leading to collapse and geotechnical mine
disasters are presented. Identifying risks and monitoring
geotechnical precursors and warning signs allows for safe and
productive mining.
