INNOVATIVE MINING TECHNOLOGIES

As globalization ,privatization, modernization  and industrialization has been taking varied dimensions and shifting focus from one region to another, the S & T has been playing an important role in this adventures.       

 The  Mining industry has been progressing in northern direction due to the innovative and sophisticated mining technologies. The mining technologies starting from the grass root level of mineral resource estimation and  mine planning  to the final stage of mine life cycle-mine closure  has been widely used.

The notable mining technologies are followings:

1.    Mineral resource/reserve  estimation and evaluation method-multi-disciplinary approach-- by Geostatistics  and Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

2.    Pit optimisation techniques- Lerchs-Grossmann method, Floating cone method

3.    Mine planning and design

4.    Mining method selection by using multiple attribute decision making (MADM)methods.

5.    Mining equipment selection using expert systems(AI)

6.    Drilling optimisation by 3D laser
