*Site SelectionSite Selection

: TOCHIBORA Mine, +480mEL~+550mEL

is the most appropriate location with very competent rock condition.

*Cavern DesignCavern Design: Two 250m Long Parallel Tunnels with Modified Egg Shaped Section of 2,076m2

are capable of being safely excavated and stabilized.Stress Concentration at the Cavern Ends should be relieved by

Rounding the Edge to form “Slanted Ellipsoid”

( for example Protruded Length of 9.04m )

*Cavern LayoutCavern Layout

: Two Parallel Tunnels as above should be Located properly with 80m –100m Spacing and 50m-100m Offset to avoid the Deteriorated Zone of Surrounding Faults such as “Namari”, “Anko”, “240゜-ME”

Faults.In Determining the Direction of the Tunnel-

Axis (for example 42 ゜N from E ), Asymmetry of the Real In-Situ Initial Stress Conditions must be seriouslyConsidered. ––
