In this paper, the authors present reliability problem of the shaft disposal using unpaved backfill, risk factors of this disposal, possibility of eliminating this risk and requirements for the disposal in terms of reliability of backfill stability. Part of the paper are also graphs illustrating the development of the horizontal stress in the shaft backfill, length of the self-stabilization plug and backfill settlement dependence on selected input parameters.
