Abstract

By examination and determination of optimal solution of technological processes of exploitation and oil shale processing from Aleksinac site and with adopted technical solution and exploitation of oil shale, derived a technical solution that optimize contour of the newly defined open pit mine. In the world, this problem is solved by using a computer program that has become the established standard for quick and efficient solution for this problem. One of the computer's program, which can be used for determination of the optimal contours of open pit mines is Minex 5.2.3. program, produced in Australia in the Surpac Minex Group Pty Ltd Company, which is applied at the Mining and Metallurgy Institute Bor (no. of licenses are SSI - 24765 and SSI - 24766). In this study, authors performed 11 optimization of deposit geo - models in Minex 5.2.3. based on the tests results, performed in a laboratory for soil mechanics of Mining and Metallurgy Institute, Bor, on samples from the site of Aleksinac deposits.

Highlights

  • Determining the optimal contour of open pit mine is a necessary step in open pit mine exploitation

  • One of the computer’s program, which can be used for determination of the optimal contours of open pit mines is Minex 5.2.3. program, produced in Australia in the Surpac Minex Group Pty Ltd Company, which is applied at the Mining and Metallurgy Institute Bor

  • Programs have evolved into extremely powerful and useful tool aimed at reducing time needed to produce geo-model of studied deposits and open pit mines, saving money and creating detailed 3D model of ore bodies and mines

Summary

Introduction

Determining the optimal contour of open pit mine is a necessary step in open pit mine exploitation. The development of computer technology, and due to information revolution in the mid eighties of the twentieth century, appeared the first software packages specialized in areas of geology and mining Today, these programs have evolved into extremely powerful and useful tool aimed at reducing time needed to produce geo-model of studied deposits and open pit mines, saving money and creating detailed 3D model of ore bodies and mines. In Minex 5.2.3 program, it is possible to construct a detailed layout of the final look of open pit mine and waste rock dumps with transport routes and top and bottom edges of each floor, as well as creating excavation dynamic by Pit design tool With this program, it is possible to make full mining - geological graphic documentation.
