System Analysis and Simulation of Narrow Vein Mining Method with Underground Pre-concentration
The application of underground pre-concentration technology to narrow vein mining has the potential to change the entire economics of bulk mining methods when used in narrow vein situations. The rejection of waste at or near the face means that a higher-grade ore can be sent to surface. The waste rock can be reused directly as backfill. Swelling of the muck through blasting means that only 60 t...
متن کاملAtlas Copco Infrastructureless Guidance System for High-Speed Autonomous Underground Tramming
During the last decade, mining companies and mobile equipment manufacturers have pursued improved efficiency, productivity, and safety in underground mining operations by automating some of the functions of underground vehicles. This paper describes the implementation and successful field testing of a new infrastructureless guidance system for autonomous tramming of centre-articulated undergrou...
متن کاملGroundwater Inrush Caused by the Fault Reactivation and the Climate Impact in the Mining Gafsa Basin (Southwestern Tunisia)
The Gafsa mining basin district in Southwestern Tunisia is one of the most important producers of phosphate in the world. The exploitation of this district started at the beginning of the twentieth century a few years after the first discovery of this valuable resource. The over-exploitation of groundwater to wash the phosphate caused water-level decline in the main aquifers and the corollaries...
متن کاملUnderground contour (UGC) mapping using potential field, well log and comparing with seismic interpretation in Lavarestan area
Coastal Fars gravimetry project in Fars province was carried out to find the buried salt domes and to determine characteristics of faults in this area. The Lavarestan structure was covered by 4203 gravimetry stations in a regular grid of 1000*250 m. Depth structural model of this anticline made in previous studies was based on geological evidences and structural geology measurements. In order t...
متن کاملExtensions to an Efficient Optimization Model for Long-term Production Planning
LKAB’s Kiruna Mine is located above the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden, and produces about 24 million tons of iron ore per year, making it is the second largest underground mine in the world today. The orebody, a world-class high-grade magnetite deposit, is approximately 4 km long and 80 m wide on average, and lies roughly in the north-south direction, with a dip of some 60 degrees. Surface m...
