Abstract:Being located at the core area of Longshan dome, Longshan gold antimony deposit is one of the most representative gold antimony deposits in the central Hunan Province. All the boreholes in the previous construction are deviating seriously due to cleavage development. Based on the review of previous borehole data and related references, the statistical study and analysis on the reasons which caused borehole deviation and the deviation regularities are made, it is found that the borehole deviation distance is connected with borehole design depth, rock cleavage and construction technology. The prevention measures, such as hole location moving, inclination angle changing, vertical shaft azimuth adjusting and reasonable construction technology adopting, are put forward to reduce the borehole deviation, improve construction efficiency and ensure the borehole quality.
