Unreasonable choice of solid content (SC) and cement-to-tailings ratio (c/t), including
pipeline networking system, will lead to some pipeline problems, such as blockage, wear …

Current technical knowledge is insufficient regarding the influence of mixing time on fresh
and hardened properties of cemented paste backfill (CPB). This work focused on …

As many mines around the world are situated in freshwater-scarce regions and corporations
are challenged to meet increasing sustainability and environmental responsibility standards …

To date, only a very few number of models are available to study the shear characteristics of
the backfill-rock interface, and none of them have incorporated the effect of the interactions …

With the increasing depths of underground mines due to the scarcity of near-surface ores,
the introduction of fibre-reinforced cemented paste backfill (F-CPB) has emerged as a novel …

Cemented paste backfilling is a novel tailings-management method that is widely used in
the mining industry to minimize the environmental and geotechnical risks associated with …

Fibre-reinforced tailings backfill (FRB) has gradually been introduced in backfill mining to
improve the mechanical performance of cemented paste backfill, a construction material …

Mining activities tend to generate various waste including tailings, waste water and waste
