13. Comparison between the application of the conventional mine planning and of the direct block scheduling on an open pit mine Project
Abstract Historically, since the 60's, traditional mine planning consists of several distinct stages: 1) Definition of the ultimate pit - the portion of the blocks that results in the greatest total value; 2) Pushback selection - based on the generation of nested pits, obtained with the change in the value of the ore price; 3) Long-term production scheduling

14. Classical and stochastic mine planning techniques, state of the art and trends
Abstract Determination of the best possible ultimate pit for an open pit mine is a fundamental subject that has undergone a highly evolutionary process, reviewed in this study, since the correct choice carries substantial economic impact for the industry. The correct choice can be very beneficial for project analysis, whereas an incorrect choice has the pote

15. Improving short-term grade block models: alternative for correcting soft data
Abstract Short-term mining planning typically relies on samples obtained from channels or less-accurate sampling methods. The results may include larger sampling errors than those derived from diamond drill hole core samples. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the sampling error on grade estimation and propose a method of correcting the impre

16. Comparing blast-induced ground vibration models using ANN and empirical geomechanical relationships
Abstract Blasting remains as an economical and reliable excavation technique, but there are some environmental shortcomings such as the control of blast-induced vibration. The impacts of vibration over surrounding communities in a blast area have been investigated for decades and researchers have been using a myriad of empirical predictive attenuation equati

17. Incorporation of geological uncertainty in pit optimization with geostatistics simulation
Abstract Risk mapping processes in mine planning and ore recovery are constantly used in the mining industry to increase decision making certainty based on the available information. However, it is not possible to predict the risk behavior in all of the project's boundary conditions and small variations in some of these conditions can cause a great impact on

18. Quantifying dilution caused by execution efficiency
Abstract In open pit mining, dilution is not always a factor systematically analyzed and calculated. Often it is only an adjusted number, for example, calculated or even empirically determined for a certain operational condition perpetuating along time in the form of a constant applied to calculating reserves or mine planning in attendance of audit requireme

19. Mine/Mill production planning based on a Geometallurgical Model
Abstract The Pau Branco mine supplies two blast furnaces with iron ore lumps, and currently, charcoal consumption for pig iron production accounts for 47% of the blast furnaces' operational cost. A geometallurgical model is presented to support an economic study considering reserve volumes, product quality, and operational costs based on the metallurgical pe

20. Cost modelling of the product mix from mining operations using the activity-based costing approach
Abstract This work adds the Activity-Based Costing Approach in mining operations with a product mix. After analyzing and collecting data from an aggregate mine located in Brazil, a cost model was built, and from that, a cost management and analysis methodology of a mine in operation is created. This work has the innovation advantages of using ABC as a tool f

21. Regression model utilization to estimate the mass recovery of a phosphate mine in Brazil
Abstract The construction of block models with an estimation of grades in situ is a common practice throughout resource evaluation. However, this information is not enough to understand the behavior of the ore in the beneficiation process. Geometallurgy proposes the addition of the ore´s metallurgical behavior in the block model, making it more dependable a

23. Incorporação da variabilidade dos teores para análise de risco de recursos minerais e sequenciamento de lavra
Mining industry continuously investigates proper reconciliation procedures and techniques for mapping possible risks in ore recovery and mine planning. A case study at a Brazilian copper mine investigates the adequacy of using simulated grades for defining high risk areas affecting mine planning and the defined mineral reserves. Conditional simulations were

24. Impacto de diferentes algoritmos e geometria de depósitos minerais no planejamento de longo prazo
The main objective of mine planning is to determine ore quantity and quality distribution along a time sequence, i.e., scheduling the ore necessary to make the project technically and economic viable. These temporal sequences are fundamental for the financial success of a mine activity and presently this optimal sequence can be obtained through various minin
