Abstract
Traditional methods of ore mining in the underground mine Jama Bor cannot be applied to the ore body Borska reka for several reasons: the position of the ore body to the terrain surface, mining infrastructure and proximity of settlements, physical-mechanical properties of rocks in the ore body, economic viability, ore recovery, etc. In addition to the above, it should be taken into account that this is the ore body with low copper content, so it is necessary to choose a method for mass excavation. Due to these reasons, the mining method of ore was selected with backfilling of excavation area with paste backfill of certain physical-mechanical properties. This work will be present the test results of uniaxial compressive strength of paste backfill, as one of the most important properties and how this parameter varies depending on the change in balance of components of which a paste backfill is made. Tests were conducted on a number of different recipes for paste backfills and the backfill with 5% cement, 24% water and 71% uncycloned flotation tailings was selected as the best one.
