Candidate Details

1. Plan and Prepare for Ground Control & Slope Stability

I reviewed all relevant ground control / slope stability documentation and site procedures to ensure compliance.
I confirmed work requirements and gathered required mine survey, geological, geotechnical and historical failure data.
I identified key risks and environmental factors affecting ground control and implemented practical control measures.
I determined the people, equipment and budget needed to assess and manage slope stability issues.
I reviewed actual and predicted slope performance data to inform system design and improvements.
I identified measurable criteria for acceptable slope performance and design compliance.
Section Score
0 / 12

2. Geological & Geotechnical Evaluation

I accessed and interpreted geological, geotechnical, hydrological and hydrogeological data relevant to the site.
I coordinated exploration, monitoring, sampling or testing to assess ground control and slope stability conditions.
I identified potential ground movement or instability areas and assessed their risk and impact.
I evaluated overburden and inter-seam material properties for their influence on stability.
I analysed stress regimes, blast vibration and seismic activity for potential failure triggers.
Section Score
0 / 10

3. Mining Engineering Methods & Constraints

I evaluated how mining system types and methods affect ground control and slope stability.
I assessed alternative pit layouts/designs to improve stability from an engineering perspective.
I identified mining/geotechnical constraints that limit stability options or development approaches.
I determined equipment requirements to maintain ground control and monitor performance.
Section Score
0 / 8

4. Control Options & Management

I identified water management methods that improve ground control and reduce slope failure risk.
I selected and evaluated ground support systems or mining methods to provide appropriate stability.
I established monitoring and assessment systems to track ground movement and support effectiveness.
I developed management controls and response actions for unacceptable ground movement or instability.
Section Score
0 / 8

5. Establish the Ground Control & Slope Stability System

I developed exploration/investigation programs to identify geological features impacting stability.
I established safe access and egress methods for highwalls, lowwalls, ramps and working areas.
I defined sequences and systems of safe mining to maintain stable ground conditions.
I set up monitoring systems to warn, control operations and record ground movement events.
I prepared and implemented training plans/programs for supervisors, operators and contractors.
I established emergency response and evacuation plans for slope failure/instability scenarios.
I documented and implemented safe operating procedures relevant to ground control.
Section Score
0 / 14

6. Audit & Review System Effectiveness

I monitored ground movement and stability measurements against defined design standards.
I audited emergency response and evacuation plans and verified readiness and compliance.
I incorporated future mining requirements into ongoing stability planning and design updates.
I established procedures to respond to non-compliance or deficiencies identified by audits.
I regularly reviewed system performance and recommended improvements based on results.
Section Score
0 / 10
