"The automatic monitoring of different aspects of a mining operation is critical in optimising the future mine," says Ben Kirkwood, senior research manager, Worldwide Mining, IDC Energy Insights. "It improves the safety of all workers onsite while ensuring operations maintain compliance to plan on a continuous basis," he adds.
Engineering, Environmental Science. 2021. TLDR. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art in short-term underground mine planning, which is critical for future mining activities and reveals a deficiency of research based on the type of mining methods and incorporation of uncertainties. 5.
Abstract. Applications of operations research to mine planning date back to the 1960s. Since that time, optimization and simulation, in particular, have been applied to both surface and underground mine planning problems, including mine design, long- and short-term production scheduling, equipment selection, and dispatching, inter alia.

mining, process of extracting useful minerals from the surface of the Earth, including the seas.A mineral, with a few exceptions, is an inorganic substance occurring in nature that has a definite chemical composition and distinctive physical properties or molecular structure. (One organic substance, coal, is often discussed as a mineral as …
A report by the Inter-American Development Bank cites "deficient planning" as a consistent source of setbacks for mining projects. There are several typical stages in the mining value chain: exploration, extraction, processing, transportation, and sales. Ideally, closure and remediation conclude the mining lifecycle.
There is an emerging body of literature on how the mining industry might integrate more renewable energy into its operations, classified as follows: (i) literature that focuses on particular mining contexts (typically, remote or off-grid mines), (ii) work that relates to specific renewable technologies, and (iii) research that focuses on a ...
