Embracing Geological Complexity in Open-Pit Mining Design
from Leapfrog to GeoStudio
The design of engineered structures in large-scale rock masses requires consideration of structural geology at a variety of scales. Structural features such as folds, faults and discontinuities control rock mass behaviors and therefore contribute to either stabilization or destabilization of rock slopes.
Three-dimensional stability analysis is often required to capture the effect of geological structure on stability; and in this sense, a high-resolution geological model that entails every single aspect comprising the subsurface conditions becomes crucial, when it comes to correctly translating the geological features into the analytical model.
Join us in this webinar as we explore how integrated solutions like Leapfrog and GeoStudio can help you embrace geological complexity and make confident, data-driven design decisions in open-pit mining.
What you will learn:
- Visualizing subsurface data in a geological model
- Translating geological model to analytical model
- Assessing the stability of the open pit mine under different geological conditions
