Cemented Paste Backfill (CPB) has become a useful practice in many modern operations around the world. This method is an innovative tailings disposal and underground mine backfilling scheme that returns much of this material to the underground stope field. Thus, it is of great interest for financial and security reasons to fully comprehend the mechanical performance of such underground CPB. Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is one of the most commonly used parameters for evaluating the mechanical performance of CPB. Electrical resistivity (ER) measurement, which is a method of nondestructive testing, can also be used to determine the mechanical properties of CPB. This study was undertaken to suggest a nondestructive testing method that would permit prediction of the UCS of a CPB within 90 days. Five CPB samples were prepared at different cement-to-tailing ratios (1/4, 1/6, and 1/8 by weight) and solid content (65 and 70 wt. %), and a curing period of 3-90 days was used for ER measurement. Seventy-five CPB samples were prepared with the same cement content as those used in the pastes for UCS tests cured for 3, 7, 28, 56, and 90 days. The results of the ER measurement show that the ER versus curing periods of 3-90 days first drop to a minimum value and then gradually increase with time. The greater ER values of CPB are reached when the greater cement-to-tailing ratio and solid content is used. A logarithmic relationship is established between the UCS and the ER of CPB at 90 days. It is possible that a nondestructive method could be developed to evaluate the strength of underground CPB based on the obtained logarithmic relationship with ER at 90 days.

Mining has been one of the main industries in the course of the development of human civilization and economies of various nations. However, every industry has issues, and one of the problems the mining industry has faced is the management of waste, especially sulphide-bearing tailings, which are considered to be a global environmental problem. This issue puts pressure on the mining industry to seek alternative approaches for tailings management. Among the several different types of methods used, cemented paste backfilling is one of the technologies that offers good management practices for the disposal of tailings in underground mines worldwide. Cemented paste backfill (CPB) is a cementitious composite made from a mixture of mine tailings, water and binder. This technology offers several advantages, such as improving the production and safety conditions of underground mines. Among these advantages, CPB is a promising solution for the management of sulphidic tailings, which are considered to be reactive materials (i.e., not chemically stable in an atmospheric condition) and the main source of acid mine drainage, which constitutes a serious environmental challenge faced by mining companies worldwide. Such tailings, if they come into direct contact with atmospheric elements (mainly oxygen and water), face oxidation of their sulphidic minerals, thus causing the release of acidic drainage (i.e., acid mine drainage) and several types of heavy metals into surrounding water bodies and land. Therefore, the reactivity of sulphidic tailings with and without cement content can be considered as a key indicator of the environmental behavior and durability performance of CPB systems. For a better understanding of the reactivity, it is important to investigate the influencing factors. In this research, several influencing factors are experimentally studied by conducting oxygen consumption tests on different sulphidic CPB mixtures as well as their tailings under different operational and environmental conditions. These factors include time, curing temperature, initial sulphate content, curing stress, mechanical damage, binder type and content, and the addition of mineral admixtures. In addition, several microstructural techniques (e.g., x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy) are applied in order to understand the changes in the CPB matrices and identify newly formed products. The results reveal that the reactivity of CPB is affected by several factors (e.g., curing time, initial sulphate content, ageing, curing and atmospheric temperature, binder type and content, vertical curing stress, filling strategy, hydration and drainage, etc.), either alone or in combination. These factors can affect reactivity either positively or negatively. It is observed that CPB reactivity decreases with increasing curing time, temperature (i.e., curing and atmospheric temperatures), curing stress, binder content, the addition of mineral admixtures, degree of saturation, and the binder hydration process, whereas reactivity increases with increases in sulphide minerals (e.g., pyrite), initial sulphate content, mechanical damage, and with decreased degrees of saturation and binder content. The effect of sulphate on the reactivity of CPB is based on the initial sulphate content as well as curing time and temperature. It is concluded that the reactivity of CPB systems is time- and temperature-dependent with respect to other factors. Also, binders play a significant role in lowering CPB reactivity due to their respective hydration processes.

This study shows that wave-based techniques provide insight into some of the factors that affect the behaviour of CPB. Electromagnetic wave-based measurements are sensitive to changes in structure, free water content, bound water content, and ion availability and/or mobility. This research shows that the effective conductivity is a useful parameter to monitor the hydration process, even in low cement content pastes. Shear wave-based measurements are a useful tool to monitor the stiffness evolution in CPB. Apparent yield stress measurements are sensitive to particle-particle interactions and reflect changes in the material's composition, including water content, binder content and type, and chemical additives. All tests show that during the early stages, Portland cement hydration has little effect on the microstructure development, stiffness and flow characteristics of cement-containing pastes. The macroscopic properties of cemented paste backfill (CPB), including fluidity and strength, depend on particle-particle and particle-fluid interactions; thus, it is important to determine the fundamental interactions between the paste constituents to optimize paste design. Specific topics of interest in this study include the effects of paste composition (e.g., binder content and type, and pore fluid chemistry) on the microstructure development, and electromagnetic, rheological and mechanical properties (e.g., setting time, unconfined compressive strength and stiffness) with time. The effect of the pore fluid chemistry on the properties of the CPB depends on the type and amount of the additive. In CPB, calcium chloride and sodium chloride accelerate cement hydration and improve the UCS during the first six months of hydration. Conversely, ferric chloride and hydrochloric acid retard the hydration and setting of CPB. The tested superplasticizers retard cement hydration, increase the UCS and lower the apparent yield stress of CPB. A drawback to using the superplasticizers tested in this study is that a high shear stress is required to re-initiate flow in the pastes.

Cemented Paste Backfill (CPB) is a relatively new backfilling technology for which a better understanding of binder hydration is required. This research uses electromagnetic (EM) wave-based techniques to non-destructively study a CPB consisting of tailings, sand, process water and binder (90% blast-furnace slag; 10% Portland cement). EM experiments were performed using a broadband network analyzer (20 MHz to 1.3 GHz) in the lab and capacitance probes (70 MHz) in the lab and field. Results showed that the EM properties are sensitive to curing time, operating frequency and specimen composition including binder content. The volumetric water content interpreted from dielectric permittivity varied little with curing. Temporal variations in electrical conductivity reflected the different stages of hydration. Laboratory results aided interpretation of field data and showed that a reduction in binder content from 4.5% to 2.2% delays setting of CPB from 0.5 days to over 2 days, which has important implications for mine design.

Rapid delivery of backfill to support underground openings attracted many mines to adopt paste backfilling methods. As a precaution to prevent liquefaction and to improve the mechanical performance of backfills, a small portion of a binder is added to the paste to form the cemented paste backfill (CPB). Recently, adding sand to mine tailings (MT) in CPB mixes has attracted attention since it enhances the flow and mechanical characteristics of the pastefill. This thesis investigates the effects of adding sand to CPB on the undrained mechanical behavior of the mixture (CPBS) under monotonic and cyclic loads. Liquefaction investigations took place at the earliest practically possible age. Beyond this age, the present research focused on characterizing the evolution of stiffness and obtaining the values of the stiffness parameters that could be useful for designing and modeling backfilling systems.The evolution of effective stiffness parameters for two CPB-sand mixtures was monitored in a non-destructive triaxial test for five days. Self-desiccation was found to not be influential on the development of early age stiffness. Moreover, a framework is suggested to predict the undrained stiffness at degrees of saturation representative of the field. The credibility of the proposed test in providing stiffness parameters at representative strain levels of the field was verified.The liquefaction investigation involved monotonic compression and extension triaxial tests. Neither flow nor temporary liquefaction was observed for all cemented and uncemented specimens under monotonic compression, while temporary liquefaction was observed for all specimens under monotonic extension. The addition of binder and sand to MT was found to slightly strengthen the pastefill in compression while weakening it in extension. Under cyclic loading, the addition of sand negatively impacted the cyclic resistance. However, binder was found to be more effective in the presence of sand. All specimens exhibited a cyclic mobility type of response.

Mercury intrusion porosimetry as well as semi-qualitative image analysis techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, microCT and visual analysis software were used to develop an understanding of the structure developed in field CPB in both the macro and micro scale. Standard oedometer consolidation testing with a modified loading rate was used to investigate the interrelationship of loading rate, which simulates rate of paste accumulation in a stope and the hydration of binder of the paste. The results show that the structure that develops is sensitive to both the binder content of the CPB and the rate of paste accumulation. Cemented paste backfill (CPB) has gained increasing popularity in the last 5 to 10 years and is used routinely in several mines. However, most of the CPB designs are based on laboratory prepared CPB material properties and there is growing awareness that the field CPB may be different from the laboratory prepared material. A field based investigation quantified the extent to which the field material differs from laboratory material. Not only is the field material more heterogeneous than expected, but on average it has a higher void ratio and a lower degree of saturation. These differences impact the performance of the field material. Numerical analysis using FLAC 3D was undertaken to show the influence of the field condition on the stability of the CPB. This research provides practical recommendations for industrial application and provides a framework for further investigation of CPB. Several research projects arising from this initial work are already underway through the Lassonde Institute at the University of Toronto, and several more are at the proposal stage. Static and dynamic liquefaction testing of early age CPB showed that liquefaction due to self-weight alone is unlikely but that blasting too close to the CPB can mobilize the material. Practical recommendations such as limiting blasting in proximity to early age CPB and cordoning off vulnerable areas during the critical initial 24 hr period that the paste is vulnerable to dynamic liquefaction. The cyclic liquefaction results are believed to be the first reported for cemented paste backfill.
