function of plan location and depth. Mining costs are a function of site conditions, operating scale and equipment. The purpose of equipment selection is to select equipment that can operate optimally. Equipment selection is one of the most important aspects of open pit design. Mining costis mainly affected by the number and capacity of equipment.
The equipment investment is large and the annual operating cost is high in oversized open-pit mines. The rationality of the truck-shovel selection and matching has a more prominent influence on the economic benefit of mines. Therefore, we set up an optimization method of truck-shovel selection for oversized open-pit mines, and …
Because equipment selection is an important component of mine planning and design, the availability of a knowledge-based system for equipment selection will enhanced the degree of sophistication ...
Highlights 1. Introduction. In surface mining, one of the most critical decisions involves the selection of the appropriate equipment. This choice, encompassing the handling of materials through excavation and haulage, stands as the initial and foremost task undertaken (Cacceta & Burt, 2013), underpinning the entirety of mining operations.
Spearheading the promotion of international technology transfer in the fields of mine planning, mining systems design, equipment selection and operation techniques, the International Symposium on Mine Planning and Equipment Selection is recognised by the mining society as a key annual event in highlighting developments within the field.
In surface mining applications, the ESP addresses the selection of equipment to extract and haul mined mate-rial, including both waste and ore, over the lifetime of the mining …
This unique book presents innovative and state-of-the-art computational models for determining the optimal truck–loader selection and allocation strategy for use in large and complex mining operations. The authors provide comprehensive information on the methodology that has been developed over the past 50 years, from the early ad hoc …

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 …
A good estimation of haulage fleet productivity is a pivotal input to determine the mine fleet requirement. In open pit mining, the two major factors affecting the fleet productivity are the planned tonnage to be moved, that is based on the long-term production schedule, and the time it takes to move the dirt tonnage which depends on the mine …

The Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Platinum 2012 101 S.M. Rupprecht MINE DEVELOPMENT – ACCESS TO DEPOSIT S.M. Rupprecht University of Johannesburg Abstract A deposit to be mined by underground methods can be accessed by a number of methods: • Adit • Decline or ramp • Inclined shaft • Vertical shaft.
Opening a new mine is an expensive, time-intensive process. Most mines must operate for years to cover initial start-up costs; therefore, they are only opened after careful market analysis. In the case of the rare earth elements (REEs), there has only recently been a significant increase in REE usage, and the mining industry has not yet ...

One of the challenging problems for surface mining operation optimization is choosing the optimal truck and loader fleet. We refer to this problem as the equipment selection problem (ESP). In this paper, we describe the ESP in the context of surface mining and discuss related problems and applications.
