Recent exploration results are very promising and reveal opportunities for continued future mining at greater depths. Changed conditions in terms of more complex geometries in combination...

Managing rockburst has been a challenge task in hard rock mines for many decades that still remains difficult especially when mining goes deeper.

This presentation will start with a general description of the understanding of rock mechanics in the mining environment. Examples from Boliden mines of how high stresses on varying rock mass strength influences the mine infrastructure will be shown...

The presentation outlines the continuing demand for minerals and its impact on mineral resources. The trend is towards larger and deeper mineral deposits.
