The stress state of a rock mass close to the Vostochniy open-pit, Olimpiadinskoe gold deposit, was studied with relief methods in the end-face measurement variant. The studies were performed at three observation stations within one engineering-geological rock block and identified the gravitational-tectonic type of acting stress field. The maximum component of the principal stresses is subhorizontal and acts in the zone of influence of the open-pit excavation parallel to the open-pit contour. Reconstruction of the ...
