Abstract:According to the strength test results, the grey correlation analysis method of grey system theory is used to analyze relationship of various factors affecting the strength of backfill, it provides a simple and effective method for sensitivity analysis of factors affecting the strength of backfill. The results show that the lime-sand ratio is the primary factor affecting the strength of backfill. According to different strength requirements of backfilling, the mine can select the appropriate lime-sand ratio to save the backfilling cost.
