This report discusses the occurrence of falls of ground in strike gullies. Falls of hangingwall over strike gullies on the up-dip side of strike stabilizing pillars in longwall mining systems were investigated. Gullies were examined in both the Carletonville district and on the East Rand. Falls of hangingwall were logged and the nature of the detachment surfaces, which allowed rock to fall, were identified.
