Questions and Answers

What are the potential hazards associated with truck transport and borehole feed in mine backfilling?

Variable transport distances to boreholes, variable fill character due to variable mix times, and lack of time control to stope delivery for QC.

Insulate the pipeline leading from plant to borehole, provide heated covers, and climate protection.

What are the two methods of backfill transport and distribution system mentioned in the text?

Pipeline transport of hydraulic (slurry) or paste fill, and batch transport of paste fill using cement mix trucks.
