Optimization of room-and-pillar method parameters under conditions of limestone rocks
Year: 2014

The rational use of natural resources and landscape preservation at increasing building material production is a great challenge. Rational land use and environmental protection is topical task for the Crimean peninsula. About 5% of prospected limestone rocks used for building in Ukraine is concentrated there.
