Join SRK at CIM's virtual conference and AGM for their South Central BC Branch. The theme for the technical sessions is Embracing Change in the mining industry.
This presentation will discuss some current technologies available to evaluate the rock mechanics of closed, open pit and underground mining projects. A geotechnical closure framework will be outlined with regards to the utilization of historical and new data. New data evaluation methods including drone, lidar, sonar, InSAR and subsurface monitoring will be discussed with accompanying case study application to projects in Canada and the United States. This presentation is based on a paper authored by Adrienne Joaquim, Choong Eun Lee and Ed Saunders.
Adrienne has seven years of experience as a consultant in the mining industry. She has managed technical studies ranging from strategic level conceptual assessment to PEA, PFS and FS level studies. Adrienne’s technical background is in geotechnical investigations and stability analyses as they relate to open pit and underground mines. She has been involved in open pit and underground geotechnical assessment projects ranging from scoping level to feasibility level studies. Adrienne has a range of experience including field geotechnical data collection programs (drill core logging), characterization of rock mass, slope stability analysis, review and reconciliation of old mine workings, and empirical evaluation of underground excavation stability.
