... feature of Rajo Sur is that it is located adjacent to the SW end of the DET subsidence crater, resulting in an important operational interference with the underground mine. The proximity of the pit to this existing crater has led the company to deposit waste material inside the cavity as well...

... Abstract This paper describes the formation of a large cavity in an underground complex at a hydropower plant in the Himalayas. The geometry of the cavity is controlled by the rock joints and foliation that intersected a major steeply dipping shear zone. For stabilization of the cavity, three...
