UER Forum > Archived UE Encyclopedia > Stope (Viewed 74 times) Freak  Location: Usually Alaska, now MSP. Gender: Male Hypocrite  |  |  Stope < on 1/27/2004 10:14 PM >   A large chamber in an underground mine, created by drilling a pattern of shafts and tunnels through an area of rock and then using explosives to pulverize the surrounding rock and create a cavern. A tunnel or shaft at the bottom of the stope is used to empty the chamber of crushed rock, which is removed to be processed. Stopes can be very unstable due to their large size, and sometimes collapse. If a stope is close to the surface it can collapse and form a large pit called a "glory hole". Turn off the internet and go play outside. http://spamusement...hp/comics/view/137 UER Forum > Archived UE Encyclopedia > Stope (Viewed 74 times) All content and images copyright © 2002-2024 UER.CA and respective creators.
