Sublevel caving method without bottom column and filling method were used for mining in a mine. This paper studied the change of stope ground pressure and stope stability when two mining methods were used simultaneously. FLAC3D numerical simulation technology was used to simulate the evolution law of stope ground pressure in this mine, and microseismic monitoring technology was used to verify the simulation results. The results showed that with the development of sublevel caving method, the stability of the lower consolidated backfill was significantly improved, and the force on the lower stope pillar was on the decline. After the mining of sublevel caving method, the vertical stress of the lower stope pillar decreased by about 35%. Thus, it was proved that the mining method of sublevel caving without bottom column can effectively relieve the ground pressure in the lower filling stope and is conducive to improving the stability of stope.
