4. Although the basic concept of an open pit is quite simple, the planning required to develop a large deposit for surface mining is a very complex and costly undertaking. At one mine, it may be desirable to plan for blending variations in the ore so as to maintain, as nearly as possible, a uniform feed to the mill. At another operation it may be desirable to completely …

3. Case Study: UG2 Stockpile. A platinum mine was operating an existing stockpile approximately 12 m high with UG2 material at 5% moisture content. The stockpile was fed with an incoming conveyor and the bulk stream feeding the stockpile contained a -4 mm fraction percentage between 25% to 30%.

Run-of-Mine stockpiles are essential components in the mining value chain because they can be used as temporary storage to bal-ance inflow and outflow and provide an opportunity for blending material. Stockpile schedulers plan stockpile recovery to balance throughput and material specifications to deliver for the supply chain's next stage.
