dc.description.abstractDrilled specimens from four types of rocks, namely Quartzite, Norite, Sandstone and Coal encountered in the South African mining environment were tested to determine their fracture toughness coefficients, using International Society for Rock Mechanics (I...) standards. The tests were conducted using a MTS servo-controlled testing machine in displacement control mode. (Abbreviation abstract)en_ZA
