Mine exploitations often begin with damages to hill slopes, especially so with open-pit excavations, where large-scale land exploitation becomes immensely unavoidable. Early mining sites tended to focus on extracting the earth resources at the expense of proper soil and water conservation. Over the recent years as the economy of Taiwan takes flight, the public are increasingly aware of soil and water conservation tasks, while the government is also actively seeking to protect state properties. onsequently, more than resources exploitation, soil and water conservation efforts are increasingly
becoming a core issue in mining operations, for hazard of unnecessary mishaps stemming from over exploitation of slopes are marred by landslide. Hence that slope stabilizing measures will take center stage as a prerequisite in mining operations, an area this study intends to examine.The subject study encompasses conducting slope stability analysis on the selected study site of the limestone bedrock located within the Yuh-shan mining site operated by Asia Cement Corporation, where the research method and procedure consist of gathering area geological data for preliminary analysis.
