الملخص
As part of Saudi Arabia’s 2030 vision, the mining sector is being developed to become the third pillar of the kingdom’s industrial growth. In line with this development, new mining laws and executive regulations have been established. These new laws and regulations, which align with the best international practices, focus on the sustainability of the mining sector. One aspect of the new regulation emphasizes the importance of geotechnical stability in both surface and underground mining. These requirements are taken into consideration during the design and operation of the mine, as well as during its closure and rehabilitation. However, these requirements need to be detailed and explained further. This contribution aims to address some of these issues and provide a roadmap for moving forward.
