Optimization of road position in open pit mining using location theory
The road is an important design factor in mine planning and design which influences the pit slope,stripping ratio and mineable ore quantity. The road position in open pit wall is a function of the volume of material which must be transported from pit (mine) to different destinations such as waste dump,stock pile,mill and leach dump. In this paper we presented a model to optimize the road location. This model gives the most optimum possible location of road which has the minimum transportation cost. As a case study the model was implemented in a copper mine in Iran and the optimum position of road in pit wall was determined. The results indicated that this position gives the most suitable design parameter and presents the minimum cost.
