Ore production with open-pit mining method is an economical and productive mining method and widely used at mining industry. Although the several advantages of open pit operations against underground operations, the ever expanding pit areas and the deeper excavations cause safety problems. In this study the open pit mining method was evaluated at slopped and over clayed layering conditions. As a case study G - coal production panel at Ki{dotless}srakdere North mining section was studied. The stability analysis of current situation and deeper level situations were discussed at study area. As a result of the analysis safety pillar have to be left at G - production panel for safer production.
