    Author: Warren, Sean, Raffaldi, Michael, Dehn, Kathryn and Seymour, Joseph
     
    Description: Increased use of underhand methods in the last 30 years has improved safety in many mines. However, with the continual drive for more efficient and cost-effective mining, there is a need to thoroughly understand the geotechnical properties of cemented fill so that safe, stable openings can be designed while optimizing costs and production schedules.
