Abstract
Advantages ?Safety ?Health ?Rapid, continuous development, productivity ?Stope dilution reduction Disadvantages ?High cost and long time for equipment development ?Hard rock mining condition limitations ?Size of equipment ?Equipment set-up time, down time ?Performance does not meet financial return targets ?Drill and blast retains advantage in cost, productivity, capital investment, application flexibility ?Stress accumulation issues in deep mining, ground support and material handling issues in weaker rock
