Cemented paste backfill (CPB) technology is now widely utilized by most modern underground hard rock mines in Canada, Australia, the United States, South Africa and Turkey. CPB is a cementitious material produced with three ingredients: filtered wet tailings, hydraulic binders, and mixing water to ensure the paste’s flowability in pipeline for final deposition. This book investigates CPB technology using a recently designed lab apparatus called CUAPS (curing under applied pressure system) that estimates in situ CPB conditions. The CUAPS apparatus has been demonstrated as a practical and cost-effective tool that effectively replaces the traditional approach using non-perforated plastic moulds. The results obtained with the CUAPS apparatus will contribute to improve the safety of mines and miners and provide a better understanding of paste backfill. Each section of this book represents an original contribution to the science and engineering of paste backfill. This book provides some...
