The influence of inter-panel lag length on the development of mining-induced fractures in and around a deep level longwall stope

M.Sc. (Geology) === Analyses show that the effect of inter-panel lag on hanging wall instability is an important factor affecting rock-fall accidents and production losses in gold mines utilising segmented longwall mining methods. The study emphasises the effect of inter-panel lag on the development...
