Abstract
ABSTRACT Australia is a country rich with mineral resources and is home of a large number of mineral ventures in hard rock and soft rock areas. Eastern states have a concentration of coal mines and Western Australia have a number of gold, nickel, and iron ore mines. Use of simulation (discrete event) in modelling the mining systems is commonly used during mine design phases to evaluate various operational scenarios. System modelling has been limited to large companies with a good size of technical services staff. Routine evaluation of haulage systems is done in house using computer packages such as TALPAC. A review of some of the work that has been done in Australia is presented.
