Short Course: Open Pit Slope Design and Implemetation

The EduMine short course Open Pit Slope Design and Implementation by P.F. Stacey is being held this Monday and Tuesday (Nov. 22-23) in Vancouver.

This course presents an overview of the process for the design and management of slopes in open pit mines. Starting with a description of the information required to support a slope design and the methods of data collection, it progresses to the design procedures for bench configurations, inter-ramp slopes and overall slopes, including the analytical procedures commonly in use. Specific examples of design will be presented and discussed in the class to illustrate that factors that could affect pit slope stability.
