HADJIGEORGIOU, J.; DORION, J.F.  y  GHALI, E.. Support system performance under different corrosion conditions. J. S. Afr. Inst. Min. Metall. [online]. 2008, vol.108, n.6, pp.359-365. ISSN 2411-9717.

This paper reports on recent field observations on the performance of support systems under different corrosion environments in Canadian underground mines. Phenomenological data are used to gain a better understanding of the main causes of corrosion in underground metal mines. Preliminary field data collected from five metal mines have been complemented by atmospheric and water sample analysis as well as fractography and metallographic studies. This has identified dominant factors that control the corrosion of support systems. The data are analysed in order to develop a support strategy for mines operating in corrosion environments.
