A critical component to any feasibility study of an open-pit mining project is determining the ultimate pit limits and the optimal mining phases (pushbacks). Today, block models are the most commonly used technique for calculating mineral resources and reserves (Krzemień et al., 2016; Riesgo García et al., 2019; Sterba et al., 2020).

There was a fair amount of research that went into gathering all the costs and dimensions needed to give potential miners an idea of the financial implications of running an open-pit operation. One of the more unique features of this financial model is the ability of the user to enter the % of a given ore they expect to have in each tonne of ...
1.1.3.1 Open-pit mining Open-pit mining is a type of strip mining in which the ore deposit extends very deep in the ground, necessitating the removal of layer upon layer of overburden and ore. In many cases, logging of trees and clear-cutting or burning of vegetation above the ore deposit may precede removal of the overburden. The. Read More
Open pit mining -- or strip mining -- is an extraction process for ore or fossil fuels that takes place at the surface of a mining site. Worldwide, 40 percent of mining occurs at the surface, according to Greenpeace International. ... All of these improvements to efficiency work to reduce the cost of mining using an open pit. Greater Safety ...
The total mining cost is calculated $158,311 for the bench with the initial values. The solver engine divided the problem to 13,341 subproblems and reached to the minimum total mining cost in 43.9 s by changing these two variables while considering the constraints. The minimum total mining cost to extract given bench is obtained as …
The transportation system cost of open-pit mining accounts for about 50–60% of the total production cost [1,2]. Therefore, improving transportation efficiency and reducing transportation costs are the most important ways for mines to increase revenue [3,4].
