Stability of rock slope is greatly affected by the geometry and strength of discontinuities developed in the rock mass. In this study an analytical method which is capable of analyzing the effect of relative orientation between the discontinuities and the slope face on the safety of slope by assessing their vector components was used to evaluate the stability and the maximum cut-angle for the proposed slope design. The results of computerized vector analysis revealed that slope area under investigation might be divided into 3 sections of different face directions. The safety factors for benches in each 3 sections were calculated using the limit-equilibrium theory. Then, by utilizing the concept of probabilistic risk analysis, the susceptibility of entire slope failure was estimated. Based on the distribution of safety factor in each bench, the maximum cut angle of each section could be selected differently ot achieve the permanent stability of the entire slope.

Slope optimization aims to maximize the slope angle in an open pit mine, resulting in subsequent profits from additional ore extraction. The large open pit mines have adopted the advanced technologies to increase slope angle until they ensure the slope stability. This paper introduces a current stage of slope optimization efforts and best practices from the open pit mines.

First of all, Under given condition such as bit gage of 36mm Drill bit with right class of jack-logs experimental test carried out from two face of Bench, firing of each hole brought 90 degree Angle face and them measured length of Burden and charged ammount of powder as following.

Some empirical equations were made as follows on condition with Jackleg Drill (Bit Gage ø 36mm) and within 30 meter distance between blasting site and structures.

First ot of all, under given condition such as bit gage of 36mm Drill bit with right class of jack-leg-experimental test carried out from two face of Bench, firing of each hole brought 90 degree Angle face and them measured length of Burden and charged ammount of powder as following. $ca=\frac{A}{SW}$ A=Activated Area A=nd i=m S=Peripheral length of charged, room Ca=Rock Coeffiecency d: di=Hole diameter When constructed subway of Seoul in 1980 the blasting works increased complaint of ground vibration, in order to prevent the damage to structures. Some empirical equations were made as follows on condition with Jackleg Drill (Bit Gage 36mm) and within 30 meter distance between blasting site and structures. $V=K(D/W)^{-n}$ N=1.60 - 1.78 K= 48 - 138 Project is one of contineous works to above a determination of empirical equation on the cautious blasting vibration with Crawler Drill (70-75mm) in long distance. $V=41(D/\sqrt[3]{W})^{-1.41}$ $30m\le{D}\le{100m}$ $V=124(D/\sqrt[3]{W})^{-1.66}$ $100m\le{D}\le{285m}$.
