The vibrations induced by blasting in mining are finite waves that can disrupt geotechnical structures. For the present research, seismographs were installed in various positions along a slope with approximately two hundred meters of difference in height from the bottom of the pit to the top, in order to analyze the speed and acceleration of the particles at the moment of the wave transmission and their consequences to the stability of rocky mass. It is known that the course of these vibratory oscillations causes the particles to move and then return to the equilibrium state. Therefore, it is important to study which waves were generated in the detonation and their behavior in the lithology covered. A slope in the selected mine, Vale S.A. property, was analyzed, which is composed mostly of phyllite and quartzite, sometimes continuous, sometimes discontinuous, as there is a fractured zone of N / S orientation that extends from the top of the slope to its base. In this context, there are at least 3 fracture directions that act as an escape zone for groundwater, constituting a geotechnical problem of material disaggregation, resulting in great erosion. The vibrations induced by the detonations of explosives in the mine can increase the erosion condition when they propagate through the fractured area. The highest seismographic reading obtained among the seismographs was used in this study and the evaluation of the reduction in the safety factor of selected sections was carried out. Later, the maximum value for vibration in which the slope remains stable is also calculated, on Slide2 software. The evaluation of the results on the slope Allowed the interpretation of the effects of vibrations on the slopes reduced between 4.1% and 4.8% the values of the safety factors and shows that the lower the slope safety factor, the greater this interference from the vibration in the stability of the structure. A difference equal to 8% was observed when comparing the section with the highest Safety Factor and the one with the lowest Safety Factor.
