However, most of the existing methods are not comprehensive enough to consider the optimisation of both full truck hauling and empty truck travelling stages. Further, most of the real-time dispatching criteria are fixed, which cannot meet the variety of production requirements. To address the above problems, we consider both full and empty truck dispatching, and different from previous studies, we develop a real-time dispatching model with two parts for heterogeneous fleets in open-pit mines: a full truck dispatching model for truck-finished loading at the loading place, and an empty truck dispatching model for truck-finished dumping at the dumping place. Specifically, the proposed model has three goals for minimisation: (a) the waiting time of the trucks, (b) the deviation from the planned path flow rate, and (c) the transportation cost. Furthermore, the weights of the three sub-objectives can be changed to meet the production requirements for different real scenarios. Simulation results show that the proposed model can achieve a higher production by at least 14% and decrease the cost by at least 6% and has better adaptability to different production requirements.","PeriodicalId":49180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mining Reclamation and Environment","volume":"37 1","pages":"504 - 523"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49192716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach, however, does not consider grade uncertainties associated with grade estimation. These uncertainties have a significant impact on the net present value (NPV) and can only be accounted for when modelled as part of the production scheduling optimisation problem. In this research, a set of equally probable simulated orebodies generated through Sequential Gaussian Simulation is used as input to a stochastic optimisation model solved with genetic algorithm (GA). Grade variability is considered as part of the stochastic model. The problem definition and resource constraints are formulated and optimised using a specially designed mining-specific GA. This GA is employed to handle partial block processing through a specialised chromosome encoding technique resulting in near-optimal solutions. Two case studies are presented which compare results from the stochastic model solved with GA (SGA) and a Stochastic Mixed Integer Linear Programming (SMILP) model solved with CPLEX. For the second case study, while the SMILP model was at an optimality gap of 101% after 28 days, the SGA model generated an NPV of $10,045 M at 10.16% optimality gap after 1.5 h.","PeriodicalId":49180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mining Reclamation and Environment","volume":"37 1","pages":"460 - 487"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41825419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the recovery ratio of single-opening sequential caving technology in thick and extra-thick coal seams needs improvement. To address this, an independent cluster-group caving technology is proposed in this study. Four numerical simulation experiments were conducted to compare the recovery ratio and drawing balance of four-opening independent cluster-group caving technology and single-opening sequential caving technology. Results show that the recovery ratio in four-opening independent cluster-group caving technology is approximately 6% higher than in single-opening sequential caving technology when the thickness of the broken gangue layer and the coal seam are the same. Additionally, a judgment formula for the broken immediate roof thickness is provided when the top coal recovery ratio is seriously affected. The independent cluster-group caving technology demonstrates stronger stability and better adaptability under different conditions, as its caving sequence can prevent larger thickness changes and gangue disturbances during the drawing process. Overall, this study highlights the potential of independent cluster-group caving technology to improve the recovery ratio of LTCC technology in thick and extra-thick coal seams.","PeriodicalId":49180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mining Reclamation and Environment","volume":"37 1","pages":"319 - 337"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48271955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A series of mechanical (uniaxial compressive strength, UCS) and microstructural (thermogravimetric, mercury intrusion porosimetry, scanning electron microscope) tests as well as monitoring experiments are experimentally conducted on cemented paste backfill (CPB) specimens with and without nano-calcium carbonate and cured at different times and under isothermal or non-isothermal conditions. The results show that the addition of nano-CaCO3 particles to CPB significantly improves its mechanical strength, irrespective of the thermal curing conditions (isothermal, field non-isothermal conditions). However, the impact of nano-CaCO3 particles on the increase in strength of CPB is only effective or significant at the early ages (curing time≤7 days). It is also found that the higher temperatures improve the accelerating effect of nano-CaCO3 much more than they accelerate the PCI hydration reactions in the first 3 days. Moreover, it is also found the sulphate ions present in the natural gold tailings negatively affect the mechanical performance of nano-CPB and reduced the accelerating effect of nano-CaCO3 due to sulphate attacks.","PeriodicalId":49180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mining Reclamation and Environment","volume":"37 1","pages":"277 - 296"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48583880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The blast damage zone, which consists of an enhanced permeability zone near the pit walls, could naturally contribute to creating such preferential flow, thus eliminating the need to build a permeable envelope, reducing costs and maximising the volume for wastes deposition. The objective of this research was thus to propose parameters that could easily be accessed on the field, so practitioners could predict the flow deviation and evaluate if the BDZ is a sufficient containment structure to reduce interactions between backfilled wastes and the environment. Results showed the BDZ deviation could be predicted using the BDZ size and pit wall permeability only, and within a precision of 15% without prior assumptions on the wastes or rock permeability. Three abacuses and one semi-analytical equation were proposed, and several criteria were derived to ensure the BDZ would act as a natural pervious surround. The results of these study should help mining operators and regulatory agencies to assess the BDZ effect on groundwater flow in backfilled open-pits.","PeriodicalId":49180,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mining Reclamation and Environment","volume":"37 1","pages":"163 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41760548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
