Abstract
Safety of open pit mining in complicated geological conditions can be improved using the multilevel geomechanical monitoring of pitwall and adjacent rock mass. The domestic and foreign practices of pitwall stability monitoring are reviewed. The proposed approach need the operating mines to be equipped with advanced control equipment, procedures and services in order to jointly expand essentially the geomechanical monitoring possibilities.
