| Abstract | |
The stages involved in mining production can be modeled and managed in a more efficient way when there is an integrated and continuous flow of information, from geology all the way down the mine value chain to the final specifications of the product. It is possible to improve the efficiency of decision-making in mine planning and operations through proper data-flow management. With the incorporation of technological components such as mining software, virtual reality software and wireless components, it is possible to take decisions based on models that are more accurate and realistic. This research considers a methodology technology integration for the tasks of waste moving in the short term mine planning, to improve the quality control in mined ore using conditional simulation techniques. The integration of these technologies allows instantaneous transmission of data between mine planning and the mine operation, improving productivity and efficiency in process control. In addition, it provides a measure of the uncertainty associated with the operational mining planning. An integrated solution allows mine planners and equipment operators to obtain quicker and more efficient results, improving significantly productivity in the operation of the mine and quality of the mined ore.
