Rockfall solutions for open-pit mines should be carefully customized following an analysis of site-specific natural and anthropogenic risks. Our extensive experience in rockfall protection systems and natural hazard mitigation, makes us the ideal partner in designing and installing reliable solutions to stabilize rock faces, reducing risks and costs for mine …
اقرأ المزيدOpen-pit mining at the Palabora mine. Throughout its 35-year life, Palabora was often at the forefront of surface mining technology developments. A key feature was its use of a trolley-assist system for haul trucks coming out of the pit, to save diesel, and it was one of the early users of both in-pit crushing and computerised truck dispatching.
اقرأ المزيدA technology review of idler condition based monitoring systems for critical overland conveyors in open-pit mining applications Abstract: Large-scale overland belt conveyor systems have been installed in mining to meet the increasing demand for higher capacity and longer distance continuous transport of bulk material.
اقرأ المزيدThe intelligent construction of open-pit coal mines is still in its initial stage. The automation of equipment, design, and management information does not meet the requirements of intelligent mining. Therefore, the intelligent transformation, upgrading, and development of open-pit coal mines is an urgent and difficult task.
اقرأ المزيدThe open-pit mining operation comprises the east and west pits, which extract reef from the five MG chromitite layers. The mine transitioned from contract mining to an owner mining operation in 2017. The open-pit operations were redesigned in 2019, which improved the performance of the mine on nearly all metrics in 2020 and 2021.
اقرأ المزيدAutomation and Artificial Intelligence Technology in Surface Mining: A Brief Introduction to Open-Pit Operations in the Pilbara Abstract: This survey article provides a synopsis of some of the engineering problems, technological innovations, robotic development, and automation efforts encountered in the mining industry, particularly in …
اقرأ المزيدOpen pit mining. Open pit mining, where material is excavated from an open pit, is one of the most common forms of mining for strategic minerals. This type of mining is particularly damaging to the environment because strategic minerals are often only available in small concentrations, which increases the amount of ore needed to be mined.
اقرأ المزيدThe Sishen mine is located 30km away from the town of Kathu in the Northern Cape Province, South Africa. It is one of the largest open-pit mines producing iron ore in the world. Mining at Sishen is carried out as part of Anglo American's Kumba Iron Ore operation. The mine accounts for the majority of Kumba's iron ore production.
اقرأ المزيدindicators of the transport technology of open-pit mining when using classic open-pit dump trucks and autonomous heavy platforms (unmanned open-pit haul trucks). The article presents an analysis of existing technical and technological solutions and research on the use of unmanned transport technologies.
اقرأ المزيدCAE Mining and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) have pushed the technology further by incorporating 3D imaging technologies in a Camera that can be used in open pit and underground mining areas to capture three-dimensional images of the environment and topography, eliminating the …
اقرأ المزيدMining Technology is devoted to the publication of original, peer-reviewed research on all aspects of underground, opencast and offshore mining operations, including mine management and finance, mineral resources management, mine design and development, and planning control and mining law.
اقرأ المزيدWhen highwall mining technology is applied to recover large amounts of residual coal left under the highwall of a big open-pit mine, a reasonable coal pillar width is required to ensure the stability of the web pillars. Using numerical simulations, this paper studied the characteristics of the abutment stress distribution in the web pillars under …
اقرأ المزيدMining - Strip, Open-Pit, Quarrying: It has been estimated that more than two-thirds of the world's yearly mineral production is extracted by surface mining. There are several types of surface mining, but the three most common are open-pit mining, strip mining, and quarrying. These differ from one another in the mine geometries created, …
