This video demonstrates the process of rock bolting and wire mesh installation in an underground mining project. These ground support techniques are essential for ensuring stability and safety in excavated tunnels and stopes. However, it is important to note that while this video shows the installation of wire mesh before the first layer of shotcrete, this is not considered best practice. The first layer of shotcrete should always be applied before installing wire mesh to ensure that personnel d

Cut and fill mining is an underground mining technique used to extract ore from steeply dipping or irregular ore bodies. It involves sequentially mining horizontal slices of ore from the bottom upward. Each slice, or cut, is removed, and the void created is then backfilled with waste material or tailings to provide support for the next cut. This process is repeated layer by layer until the entire ore body is extracted. Cut and fill mining is advantageous for its ability to adapt to variable ore
