Stability prediction and evaluation on the high tailings slope in Longmen mining area

Tailings landslide is a special type of geological hazards which is formed by the development of mineral resources.Study on the stability of the high tailings slope and analysis of the potential of hazards are important measure for disaster prevention and mitigation.According to on-site field investigation, detailed study on the geological conditions and the characteristic of deformation and failure of the tailings high slope,the slope stability analysis method and numerical simulation are combined to get the slope stability factor and predict the stability tendency of the tailings.The results show that the high slope tends to slide in the heavy rains.Provide the technical support for the stability predicted and evaluated of high slope and disaster prevention.
