Abstract
This paper takes the deep ore body of Yunnan Phosphate Group Co. Ltd, the largest open-pit chemical mining enterprise in China, as the research background, and systematically introduces the technical problems recognised by many Chinese researchers in the past eight years on the open-pit to underground mining of gently inclined thin to medium-thick ore bodies with a soft interlayer. It shows that the mining of open-pit transferred to underground is a complex engineering system, and the underground stope surrounding rock and overlying strata present a nonlinear failure process. Through mining process innovation, mining method innovation and improvement, research was undertaken on new processes and technologies for phosphorus mining under complex conditions. The relevant research results not only have important economic value and academic significance for Yunnan Phosphate Group Co. Ltd. but also have important guidance and impetus to the exploitation of a large number of similar phosphate resources in China.
