AGEMERA partner publishes new scientific paper with a case study on the Polish Deep Copper Mine

The paper is drawing from the AGEMERA's work in Poland and it presents a simplified analytical method useful for ductile ground support design in underground mines 

The time has come for us to start showing the world the results that come out of our project and the countless hours our colleagues spend on innovating exploration in Europe! This time, in the spotlight we have KGHM Cuprum.

Our colleagues Witold Pytel, Krzysztof Fuławka, Bogumiła Pałac-Walko and Piotr Mertuszka have recently published a paper with the title Numerical and Analytical Determination of Rockburst Characteristics: Case Study from Polish Deep Copper Mine. 

The analytical method it describes helps maintain the stability of sidewalls in rectangular openings extracted in homogenous rocks, especially in high-pressure conditions that favour rockburst event occurence. 

You can read the paper here.
