A dynamic optimization method was created to address the production schedule issue in an open-pit coal mine while taking into account characteristics of fuzzy structured element. The mining capacities all “geologically optimal push-back bodies” were then examined using moving cove method. One most crucial elements process scheduling is pricing. As a result, this work also presents technique for...

Innovation has an important role in improving the productivity, safety and sustainability of mining operations. Historically, ore transport was done by diesel trucks, but with commitment to reduce CO2 emissions increase mine safety, companies have invested innovative, more sustainable technologies. The innovative truckless system, intensive use belt conveyors from processing plant, represents a...

Stockpiling and blending play a major role in maintaining the quantity and quality of the raw materials fed into processing plants, especially the cement, iron ore and steel making, and coal-fired power generation industries that usually require a much uniformed feed. Due to the variable nature of such materials, they even come from the same source and the produced ores or concentrates are seld...
