Outstanding advances have been made in the technologies of using cemented fill throughout the world. The choice of a cemented fill system, its mix composition and their proportion depends on the stope geometry, strength requirement, strata condition, working condition and the economy of the mining method as a whole. The strength of any cemented fill increases considerably with the increase in the cement content and decrease in the water to cement ratio.
