Telfer Gold Mine is located in the Great Sandy Desert and consists of both open pit and underground operations, including a mature sublevel cave (SLC). Changes to SLC design, with the addition of several sublevels, have resulted in an increased cave influence zone, with particular impact on the 4650 to 4600 Decline. This increased cave influence was identified during the planning stage risk assessment for the additional sublevels and a monitoring plan with associated trigger action response plans (TARPs) were included in the cave major hazard management plan (CMHMP). Once TARPs were triggered, ground support upgrades and a planned bypass were initiated for a section of the main decline. High underground temperatures and difficult work conditions resulted in the bypass activity being delayed until temperatures subsided. Due to the delays with bypass development and ongoing progression of deformation at a faster-than-expected rate, access through the original section of decline needed to be maintained for a greater length of time and with higher-than-expected deformation rates. Both a tactical ground support upgrade and a risk management plan based around monitoring data were used to maintain safe access through the main decline until the bypass was complete. Monitoring data showed a clear cause and effect between SLC production and deformation, allowing SLC production holds to be used as a key control.
