Waste management plays an important role in this process, as an alternative way of minimising environmental impacts and achieving more attractive economic scenarios, such as backfilling the pit. This study aimed to evaluate the application of the multi-stage dumping sequence (MSDS) in conjunction with in-pit deposition strategy for a phosphate mine providing general orientations and limits of applicability of the method. The MSDS makes use of temporary waste dumps which gives operational flexibility regarding waste management while reducing the Net Present Cost (NPC) (up to 8% in this study) compared with the traditional and sometimes untouchable rule of no re-handling approach during waste disposal.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"27 1","pages":"169 - 180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90779636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The smoke spread will be largely determined by the stratification. This paper studies the smoke stratification in a mine with a burning vehicle, for varying surface roughness, surface material, and impact of the vehicle. Datawas provided from full-scale experiments in an underground mine. The proposed fire gas temperature correlations successfully captured the smoke stratification in the mine and the influencing turbulence. A numerical model predicted thatnon-stratified conditions can be expected at shorter distances in a mine compared with a tunnel. Longer distances to non-stratified conditions can be expected for materials with low volumetric heat capacity. A long-lasting fire will result in longer distances to non-stratified conditions. With decreasing fire gas temperatures, the heated surface may slow down the decrease or even maintain the distances to non-stratified conditions.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"26 11","pages":"129 - 148"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72398497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A case study exploring the optimal transition depth from open pit to underground mining at AngloGold Ashanti’s Geita gold mine in Tanzania is presented herein. The approach considered assesses the problem by evaluating the profits of a set of candidate transition depths, which have been identified by the mining operation as viable opportunities. An accurate valuation for each candidate’s transition depth is derived by producing yearly mine plans based on uncertainty, which outline expected yearly cash flows. Compared with the conventional deterministic approach, the results of this study show a 23% net present value increase for the stochastic mine plans, as well as an improved production performance and the ability to meet mill requirements throughout the life-of-mine.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"9 1","pages":"181 - 190"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79463988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A common approach in such a situation is to cluster mining blocks (smallest mining units) into larger units. In this paper, an integer non-linear programming model of the constrained block clustering is developed with the objective of minimizing grade deviations while blocks are geometrically connected within a cluster and the shape and size of individual clusters are in the pre-defined range. Then, a population-based iterated local search algorithm is presented to solve this nonlinear model and find a near-optimum solution. The proposed model and the solution approach were applied to a case study of a gold and silver deposit with 40,947 blocks. The mining blocks are grouped into 1966 clusters which then mine planner can solve production scheduling in less computational time.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"37 1","pages":"149 - 158"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85396329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The choice of ground support strategies is based on the anticipated strainburst hazard as well as corporate, legislative, and operational requirements. Although mines appear to employ similar face support standards, using friction rock stabilizers and mesh, the details and the resulting coverage vary from site to site. The variations in design and coverage result in significantly different residual risks. The case is made for documenting strainburst events at the mining face and using this information to formally assess the effectiveness of implemented face support practice at the various mine sites.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"8 1","pages":"159 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82507435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Historically, identifying the low performance of equipment occurs with inspections on the mining faces or through management reports. However, through the advent of technology and greater processing and data transmission capacity, many companies have developed research to improve the decision-making process to identify events in real-time to increase mine safety and act on low-performance equipment. Thus, this paper presents the development of a cyber-physical system to control loading productivity for open-pit mines. Furthermore, the tool allows analysis of the productivity, which generates alarms in low-performance situations measured according to pre-established targets. In the practical applications of the method, the increase in loading productivity reached 4.71% by reducing process variability. In addition, the stability of the loading operation resulted in the lowest queues, fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.","PeriodicalId":44166,"journal":{"name":"Mining Technology-Transactions of the Institutions of Mining and Metallurgy","volume":"23 1","pages":"228 - 238"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78640607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even today, this task is mainly performed by experienced personnel. This leads to opportunities for increased potential to use sensor driven digital assistance systems. This paper presents a review and analysis of sensor-based loose rock detection methods considering the specific conditions of testing and use. The investigations can be classified into three categories based on their respective sensor technology approach. The opportunities for automating the scaling process highly depend on the method used. If scaling is conducted manually, the pre-entry examination could be automated. For the automation of the entire process, the use of machinery is more beneficial. Long wave infrared (LWIR) cameras or visual techniques have a great potential.

The stochastic NPV of the dynamic model showed that the project is 53.3% more economically viable than the static deterministic NPV. Risk analysis showed that the net present value-at-risk (NPVaR) is likely to achieve a value less than zero, with a 4.7% chance of incurring a financial loss. In addition, sensitivity analysis ranked the model variables according to their impact on the stochastic NPV. The NPV was optimized by adjusting the capacity and capital costs (CAPEX) as decision variables, imposing the price as a model constraint, and using a NPVaR of 1% to maximize NPV.
