Part of the activities to be included within the frame of Rock Slope Stability 2009 is the public launching of the book “Guidelines for Open Pit Slope Design” . The book is an outcome of the LOP Research Project. It has taken three years to prepare and is comprised of 14 chapters that follow the life of mine sequence from project development to closure. Each chapter is written by an industry practitioner with specific experience in the topic being described. The purpose of the book is to be a new generation guideline that links innovative mining geomechanics research with best practice, outlining for today's practitioners what works best in different situations (and why), what doesn't work (and why not), and what is the best approach to satisfy best practice in a range of situations.
