In view of the soft and fragmented surrounding rock of the roadways in Zhenyuan Gold Mine,the study combined theoretical calculation,numerical simulation and field test before conducting the crustal stress estimation of the surrounding rock,the investigation on roadway structural face and the test on point load intensity in the 1 473 m level roadway of Donggualin ore section,summarized roadway failure forms,established mechanical models of roadway failure forms,and finally analyzed and determined the surrounding rock stress status of roadway failure.The joint bolt and sprouting support is used to excavate and support the roadways with soft and fragmented rock mass.The roadway support parameters are determined and numerically simulated,verifying the reasonability of the support measures and parameters.Field tests are conducted in the roadway excavation on the 1 473 m level.Based on the deformation degree monitoring of two roadway sides,it can be seen that the final deformation degree does not exceed 20 mm and no big deformation and failure take place in the roadway.The support measure can effectively control the deformation and failure of roadway.
