HENNING, P. y FERREIRA, P.. In-stope bolting for a safer working environment. J. S. Afr. Inst. Min. Metall. [online]. 2010, vol.110, n.1, pp.47-52. ISSN 2411-9717.
Rock fall accidents continue to be the main cause of fatal and serious injuries in the mining industry. Although there has been an improvement in the FOG (falls of ground) related fatal and serious injuries over the past few years, the rate is still too high. New technology has made it possible to reduce this rate significantly. FOG accidents imply failure of the support system or the design of the support system in use. In this paper we deal with the latest technology available to assist the mines to reduce the rates of FOG related injuries and fatalities
