Abstract:This paper discusses a new software tool developed specifically for use in a sublevel caving project/mine. The tool includes a number of new algorithms or technologies which when combined provide a very efficient way to evaluate a complete sublevel layout in a matter of seconds. The core technologies imbedded in the tool are simulation of material mixing for dilution forecasting using Template Mixing algorithm, optimisation of the draw factors or extraction percentages per ring, and rapid sequencing/scheduling… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
