Get Price03.03.· Description of sublevel caving method – An underground mining method used in large, steeply dipping orebodies where the wall rock is of an incompetent nature. Parallel drives are developed in the ore on equally spaced levels. The ore is then drilled and blasted using longholes between levels, often in a circular or fan pattern, on retreat. The weight of the rock is used to assist breakage
Get Price· Sublevel Stoping (version 2) Sublevel Stoping (SLS) is often regarded as a mining method for steeply dipping deposits in competent rock. The method involves extracting the ore between the sublevels. The sublevele intervals varies from mine to mine. The operation includes long hole drilling and blasting from the drives.
Get Price11/03/· As compared to other mining methods, sublevel caving allows for a quicker and less expensive mining process. However, sublevel caving leads to greater dilution and is therefore used for lower ore bodies. The costs for sublevel caving range from $58$/tonne. Block Caving. Block caving is the logical stepup of sublevel caving.

Get PriceINTRODUCTION The sublevel stoping mining method is usually applied to a relatively steeply dipping, competent ore body, surrounded by competent wall rock. Ore is produced by drilling and blasting longholes, which can range from 50 mm (2 in.) to 200 mm (7% in.) diam, with lengths up to 90 m (300 ft). Longholes can be inclined in any direction, but the ring or pattern usually forms a plane, and
