Open pit mine design optimization under uncertainty is one of the most critical and challenging tasks in the mine planning process. This paper describes the implementation of a minimum cut network flow algorithm for the optimal production phase and ultimate pit limit design under commodity price or market uncertainty.
Oct 01, 2008· George did this great song back in 1962, when it peaked at #13 on the country charts. A forgotten classic.
The LerchsGrossmann (LG) algorithm (1965) has been used for over thirty years for the optimum design of open pit mines. This has been combined with variable grade cutoff and discounted cash flow ...
Flow network. •Weighted digraph with a source s (indegree 0) and sink t (outdegree 0) •An edge''s weight is its capacity (positive) •Add additional flow variable to each edge(no greater than its capacity) Maximum stflow (maxflow) problem: Assign flows to edges that
On the other hand, the algorithm that is most commonly used by the mining industry has been devised by Lerchs and Grossmann (LG). This algorithm is used in most commercial software packages for openpit paper describes a detailed study of the LG algorithm as compared to the maximum flow "pushrelabel" algorithm.
Mining. The ore is removed from the ground in either open pit or underground mines. Underground – sinking a vertical shaft into the earth to reach the copper ore and driving horizontal tunnels into the ore. Openpit – 90% of ore is mined using the open pit method. Ores near the surface can be quarried after removal of the surface layers.
In the optimization of open pit mine design, the LerchsGrossmann algorithm is the industry standard, although network flow algorithms are also well suited, efficient, and known. The stochastic version of the conventional (deterministic) network flow algorithm is based on the use of multiple simulated realizations of the ore deposit, thus ...
2. Prediction of groundwater inflow and height of the seepage face in a deep open pit Figure 4 shows the SEEP/W results for prediction of groundwater inflow into a deep open pit mine. The velocity vectors, isopotential lines, flow paths and water table are illustrated. The model calculated the amount of
is lower than the elevation of the water table in the pit area prior to mining, and groundwater flow is directed toward the pit lake, because evaporation from the lake surface causes it to act as a groundwater sink.

Open pit mines can be used in coal mining, and they are used extensively in "hard rock" mining for ores such as metal ores, copper, gold, iron, aluminum, and many minerals. In a open pit coal mine, the pit bottom would be the bottom mined coal seam elevation, since it is usually feasible to extract multiple seams when surface mining coal.
Together with open pit mining, this was one of the original motivating applications for studying the closure problem; it was originally studied in 1970, in two independent papers published in the same issue of the same journal by J. M. W. Rhys and Michel Balinski. Job scheduling
Openpit mining, also known as opencast mining, is a surface mining technique that extracts minerals from an open pit in the ground. Openpit mining is the most common method used throughout the world for mineral mining and does not require extractive methods or tunnels. This surface mining technique is used when mineral or ore deposits are ...
The mine''s life begins with open pit mining and will transition to production through underground mining by implementing the underhand cut and fill method. Underground production is planned to commence immediately after open pit production ceases. On the mine site there is one mill processing stream with a fixed recovery curve.

network flow approach to optimal open pit mine design–application at a gold mine by Asad* and R. Dimitrakopoulos* Synopsis The optimal design of production phases and ultimate pit limit for an open pit mining operation may be generated using conventional or stochastic approaches. Unlike the conventional approach, the
This paper analyzes an open pit gold mine project based on the O''Hara cost model. Hypothetical data is proposed based on different authors that have studied open pit gold projects, and variations are proposed according to the probability distributions associated to key variables affecting the NPV, like production level, ore grade, price of ore, and others, so as to see what if, in a gold ...
