The Dump is the Target—A Reversed Mine Plan

Abstract

Mine plans usually need to consider the tonnage that must be stored in the dumping area and the machine hours required to place material there as a constraint. The Department of Mining Engineering and Mineral Economics was involved in a project, in which the whole mine planning procedure had to start with the dump. To start with a dump, formulating the targets for the mine plan did require some adaptation of the standard mine planning procedure. After a proper set-up, the schedule was updated several times to optimize it. In total, six complete scenarios have been created where the dam could be built in the simulation.
