thin column of ore drawn w i t h each fan blast i s bounded by the solid wall of
the next fan on one side and the caved waste on a l l the other sides, the
problems of recovery and dilution are as great as i n any other method. Dur-
ing the last ten years or so a considerable amount o f research has been
studies conducted under natural conditions. This research has shown that by
