Falls of ground remain one of the largest causes of death in South African underground mining. Rock mass classification, support design and installation quality, seismicity in deep level operations, and the entry examination routine that decides whether a working place is safe to enter.
Rock engineering practitioners, strata control officers, mine overseers, shift supervisors, miners in charge of working places, and production managers on underground operations.
