Degraded mine areas, Geotechnical problems, Portuguese contextAbstract
There are several problems which occur after mine closure, including, among other, slope instability, subsidence, mining access degradation and instability of mining waste structures. This last problem is the most common in Portugal, a country where there are about 175 degraded mine areas, whose degradation state deserves a fast and efficient intervention.
