In some mining operations, one of the most important roles played by the geologist is the supervision of grade control. In an open-pit operation, this involves the sampling of blast-hole cuttings produced by down-the-hole hammer drills and the classification of bench reserves into ore, low grade or waste material, or into various …

Optimizing Grade Control: A Detailed Case Study Mario E. Rossi GeoSystems International Abstract The most important task in daily life of an open-pit mining operation is to perform in-pit selection of ore and waste material. Oftentimes the process is complicated because subclassifications ar e required, for example through stockpiles
where h is the depth considered to exit the conveyor from which and α is the gradient of the existing ramping system. This alternative is suggested previously to be the best for existing steady-state operations for material handling in horizontally advancing mines [].In this case, different conveyor lines with lengths of at most 50 m are linked …

The open pits contained approximately 565,000 gold equivalent ounces in reserves at the end of 2023 at an average gold equivalent grade of 3.16 gpt (552,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 3.09 gpt gold). Lower-grade ore is being stockpiled. Open pit mining is expected to cease in 2025 with the forecast depletion of reserves.

In this paper, LCA is used to evaluate the acidifi-cation potential (AP) and global warming potential (GWP) of belt conveyors and truck haulage systems in a surface gold mine …
In-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) systems have drawn attention to the modern mining industry due to the numerous benefits than conventional truck-and-shovel systems. However, the implementation of …
Abstract: The deposits exploited in Australian open pit gold mines are often small and of low grade with highly variable gold distributions. Consequently, they require detailed grade control. The nature of these grade control programmes is outlined together with a description of the various computational methods used. Particular attention is given to …
Integrated continuous mining techniques such as fully mobile in-pit crusher and conveyor (FMIPCC) systems offer inherent labour, energy and environmental benefits to deep pit metalliferous mines.

Two surface mines are considering the use of a conveyor in conjunction with their current fleet of trucks and shovels. The mines are; a strip mine operation in which coal is transported out of the strip from a depth of 37m to a coal plant on surface, at a rate of 1.2 million tons per month. an open-pit operation in which coal and waste are transported …
8. CONCLUSIONS The use of the combination of in-pit crush- ing with belt conveyors can change marginal projects to profitable concerns, by reducing operational cost. This has been proved in mines of considerable operational life and size, involving transport of large quantities of material over fairly long distance.
