A genetic algorithm approach for open-pit mine production scheduling
In an Open-Pit Production Scheduling (OPPS) problem, the goal is to determine the mining sequence of an orebody as a block model. In this article, linear programing formulation is used to aim this goal. OPPS problem is known as an NP-hard problem, so an exact mathematical model cannot be applied to solve in the real state. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a well-known member of evolutionary algorithms...
متن کاملAn imperialist competitive algorithm for solving the production scheduling problem in open pit mine
Production scheduling (planning) of an open-pit mine is the procedure during which the rock blocks are assigned to different production periods in a way that the highest net present value of the project achieved subject to operational constraints. The paper introduces a new and computationally less expensive meta-heuristic technique known as imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) for long-term...
متن کاملScheduling Tools for Open-Pit Mining Operations
In open-pit mining operations, there are several levels of planning, each of which passes down restrictions to the level below. Each planning task is to determine the order in which material should be mined and how it should be processed, such that blending and utilisation targets are met. The mining operations are subject to various constraints on equipment use, maintenance and other resources...
متن کاملOpen pit limit optimization using dijkstra’s algorithm
In open-pit mine planning, the design of the most profitable ultimate pit limit is a prerequisite to developing a feasible mining sequence. Currently, the design of an ultimate pit is achieved through a computer program in most mining companies. The extraction of minerals in open mining methods needs a lot of capital investment, which may take several decades. Before the extraction, the p...
متن کاملThe new Fundamental Tree Algorithm for production scheduling of open pit mines
The problem of annual production scheduling in surface mining consists of determining an optimal sequence of extracting the mineralized material from the ground. The main objective of the optimization process is usually to maximize the total Net Present Value of the operation. Production scheduling is typically a mixed integer programming (MIP) type problem. However, the large number of integer...
