One of the challenging problems for surface mining operation optimization is choosing the optimal truck and loader fleet. We refer to this problem as the equipment selection problem ESP. In this paper, we describe the ESP in the context of surface mining and discuss related problems and applications. Within the scope of both the ESP …

The excavator selection process is quite complex due to the large number of influencing factors, many of these are variable and difficult to accurately define. The majority of mining companies prepare a tender of general specifications and suppliers will then match a product to those specifications. The mining company will then evaluate the tenders on …
The specific challenges covered are: (1) Realistic quantification of downstream processes applied to orebody models to provide an integrated approach to mine design and optimisation. (2) Modelling, estimation and simulation of geometallurgical variables and their integration into resource and reserve estimation and mine planning. (3)

3 Mine Planning for AHS Mine planning for an AHS mine is almost identical to a non-AHS mine. The single critical difference is that the haul roads are approximately 15% wider than a conven-tional mine, which results in a slight decrease in the overall slope angle of the mine wall. The batter angles, berms and catch bench width can remain the same.

Proceedings of the 27th International Symposium on Mine Planning and Equipment Selection - MPES 2018 TLDR This study shows that the Kuz-Ram model has the most accurate results and is appropriate, but the confidence of the model decreases when changing the rock type, and modified by determination of a confidence index.
Description. This work details the findings of the 7th International Conference on Mine Planning and Equipment Selection of 1998, held in Calgary. Topics include: design and planning of surface and underground mines; geotechnical stability in surface and underground mines; and mining and the environment.
Production scheduling optimization is one of the main issues that have a significant effect on the mine economics. Production scheduling optimization in underground mines, has received less attention than in surface mines, and it is still a manual process and in most cases, achieving the truly optimal result through manual …

Mining subsidence land reclamation was focused on stable land for the past 30 years in China. In eastern China, a relatively flat terrain and high groundwater table area, mining activities cause more than half of the subsided land submerged in water and the fertilized top soil was lost permanently, which leads to a low percentage of farmland reclamation …

Its result is the mine plan which defines how the resources will be extracted. operational: involves the delivery of the material to its destination (for example, using trucks) or the change of location of a shovel. The operational processes and indexes resulting from the mining plan are included in the operational planning.
The methodology consists of two phases: • rational selection of a group of mining methods using numerical methods; • optimal selection of a mining method using multi-criteria decision-making methods. 2. METHODOLOGY The working methodology for underground metal mining method selection is shown in Fig. 1.
In conventional mining the selection of the mining equipment (i.e. main function carriers) which comply with the system requirements, the mining engineer can rely on existing equipment selection ...

Accordingly to Ontario mine regulations, a. 50-tonne electric truck with an AC motor requires about 495 m3/min (17500 cfm) of fresh air, as opposed to around 1500 – 1850 m3/min (52500 – 80500 cfm) indispensable to evacuate and dilute exhaust gases emitted by equivalent 50-tonne diesel-powered trucks [13].
Abstract. Applications of operations research to mine planning date back to the 1960s. Since that time, optimization and simulation, in particular, have been applied to both surface and underground mine planning problems, including mine design, long- and short-term production scheduling, equipment selection, and dispatching, inter alia.
