Slope Stability, Itakpe Iron Ore Mine, Intersection, Critical Zone, Failure. 1. Introduction . The Itakpe iron ore deposit lies 4 kilometre south west – of Ajabanoko iron ore deposit and is located within lati-tude 8˚ and 9˚ and longitude 7˚ and 8˚. The Itakpe iron ore deposit is operated as an open pit mine and has mul-tiple benches.
Iron ore mining began at the Itakpe deposit by open pit method under the management of the National Iron Ore Mining Company (NIOMCO) in 1987 as successor to the Associated Iron Ore Company established in 1979. NIOMCO is expected to supply ore concentrates to the steel works at Ajaokuta and Aladja, as well as producing ore concentrates for export.

The slope stability of the Itakpe Iron Ore Mine has been carried out using computer software, ROCKPACK III. One hundred and twenty three dip and dip direction values were obtained using compass clinometer. The Itakpe Iron Ore Mine was divided into four benches; 241 - 258 m, 263 - 275 m, 276 - 286 m and 308 - 312 m. Joints along the discontinuities were mapped.
