What Will I Learn?
The Mining Geotechnics Course gives you practical skills to assess and stabilize open pit walls and underground drifts using RMR, Q-system, and limit equilibrium concepts. Learn to characterize rock masses, design rock support, manage groundwater and blasting impacts, plan monitoring, and write clear, defensible recommendations that improve safety, reliability, and decision making on active mine sites.
Elevify Differentials
Develop Skills
- Rock slope stability checks: apply kinematic and limit-equilibrium methods fast.
- Rock mass classification: use RMR and Q-system to rate and support mine openings.
- Underground support design: size bolts, mesh, and shotcrete for safe drifts.
- Open pit stabilization: plan drainage, blasting, and support to control slope risk.
- Monitoring and reporting: design plans and write clear, decision-ready geotech memos.
