Antes da abertura de qualquer empreendimento mineiro, seja ele subterrâneo ou a céu aberto, deve-se ter o conhecimento das características geomecânicas do maciço no qual irá se trabalhar. Para obter informações dessas características, utilizam-se os chamados sistemas de classificação. Estes sistemas reúnem as informações necessárias e propõem um índice para a qualificação dos maciços rochosos. O presente artigo apresenta a metodologia adotada na qualificação do maciço rochoso de um depósito de chumbo e zinco, através do sistema de classificação Rock Mass Rating (RMR), para proposição de um modelo geomecânico. Através da análise de 50 furos de sondagem com suas respectivas descrições geológicas, foi possível criar o modelo geológico do depósito, fazendo, assim, o reconhecimento das unidades presentes na área de estudo. Foram identificadas 4 unidades: arenito, conglomerado, ritmito e minério. Além disso, foram coletadas informações referentes aos 6 parâmetros pelos quais o RMR se baseia, nos furos de sondagem. Após serem determinados os valores de RMR ao longo de todos os furos, estimaram-se os mesmos dentro de cada unidade, através da krigagem de indicadores. A partir dos resultados da estimativa, foi possível obter o modelo geomecânico. No modelo geomecânico proposto, foi observada a predominância da classe II (maciço bom) em todas as unidades. Já na base do modelo houve predominância das classes III e IV (maciço razoável e fraco respectivamente) devido à presença de brechas.

Ethical guidelines for journal publication
The REMOA is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviews should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
