Introduction. Factors affecting rock mass response to mining. Case studies of rock mass response to underground mining. Case studies of rock mass response to surface mining. Case studies of inundations. Effect of discontinuities on the initiation of failure process. Behaviour of rock mass prior to failure. Rock mass behaviour during failure. Post-failure rock mass behaviour. Modes of failure of rock and rock mass. Behaviour of fragmented ore. Mitigation of rock mass response through geotechnical quality assurance.
