Experienced Underground mining engineering activities: mine development, mine ventilation, muck and haulage, ground control, hoisting system, drainage and dewatering, drilling and blasting, mine service works (fitting vent ducts, UG infrastructures), backfilling, rock bolts strength test, open hole scanning using CMS, core logging, face mapping, off siding drill jumbo, long hole drilling ...

All departments: Planning, survey, geology, geotechnical, ventilation and operations are to provide input and sign-off for stope and mine designs. Survey stope mark-up and a reference line. Implement surveyed drill set-up process (drill hole accuracy). Blasting engineer continuously involved with blasting crews.

Aug 13, 2020· The fully financed Phase 1 RC drill program will consist of around 20 drill holes totaling 2,900 metres. The main target is shallow, bulk tonnage, heap leach, epithermal gold-silver oxide mineralization around and below and adjacent to the previously mined Contention pit.

the individual blast holes is regulated by the initiation system. zPlastic shock tubes or electric caps using a timing system are generally employed. zA shock tube is non-electric, instantaneous, and has a thin reactive powder that propagates the shock wave signal.

Mining - Mining - Blasthole stoping: When the dip of a deposit is steep (greater than about 55°), ore and waste strong, ore boundaries regular, and the deposit relatively thick, a system called blasthole stoping is used. A drift is driven along the bottom of the ore body, and this is eventually enlarged into the shape of a trough. At the end of the trough, a raise is driven to the drilling ...

In normal blasting all holes do not blast at the same time. ... A new iron ore deposit is to be worked by surface mining methods with 15 m benches using 150 mm diameter blastholes. Since the prevailing condition is dry rock, it has been decided to use bulk ANFO with emulsion cartridges as

Home / Shallow Hole Blasting Ore Mining. Diamond Mining Methods Diamond Museum Cape. Once exposed the ore in the pit is broken up by blasting. A single blast can break approx. 3000 tonnes of ore. Once the ore is broken excavators load the ore into haul trucks and transport it to a primary ore crusher where the diamond extracting process begins.

Dec 01, 2013· Combined with the shallow depth seams geological conditions in Shigetai Mine, Shendong Mining Area, this paper uses the theoretical analysis and the software of LS-DYNA3D numerical simulation to uncover the deep-hole pre-split blasting mechanism for controlled roof caving, thence presents the roof caving design.

Unplanned ore dilution is a result of stope properties, rock mass characteristics, blasting patterns, and the geometry of the orebody. [8] In considering stope stability in longitudinal mining, the hanging wall is the face that will be most affected by unplanned dilution.

Author: Mike Neumann, Neumann Engineering and Mining Services Inc. (NEMS) Date: May 2010 Shrinkage stoping is a mining method used for steeply dipping, narrower ore bodies with self supporting walls and ore. It is an overhand mining method that relies on broken ore being left in the stope to be used as the "working floor" and to support the walls.

Fly rock is commonly generated due to blasting of shallow holes. Excessive fly rock can be resulted due to geological conditions, blast design parameters, type of explosives and their distribution ...

raising, etc so that the ore bodies are easily accessible and transportable after excavation. The blasting procedure is the same as discussed previously. The production work can be subdivided into two categories: short-hole and long-hole blasting. Short-hole blasting The diameter and length of shotholes are usually limited to 43

Potential integration of blasthole characteristic data such as seam and geology aspects of each hole allow dynamic blast charging and detonation timings during the blast cycle. By dynamically tailoring the blast process based on actual, "As-Drilled" hole data, blast processes can achieve higher efficiency and increased fragmentation.

Blast hole Drilling is a technique used in mining whereby a hole is drilled into the surface of the rock, packed with explosive material, and detonated. The aim of this technique is to induce cracks in the inner geology of the surrounding rock, in order to facilitate further drilling and associated mining activity.

Once exposed, the ore in the pit is broken up by blasting. A single blast can break approx. 3,000 tonnes of ore. Once the ore is broken, excavators load the ore into haul trucks and transport it to a primary ore crusher where the diamond extracting process begins. The Kimberley Big Hole is an example of open-pit mining.

Jul 28, 2017· 42 3. Diameter of blast hole 4. Orientation of the ore body 5. Dynamic rock/ore properties. There is a need to have effective free face for blasting. 43. 43 This diagram shows the effective free face. The location of first blast hole, second blast hole and the third one also seen here. 44.

Apply ore-waste separation techniques such as resue mining, split-timed blasting, hand-sorting, belt sorter, heavy media separation, dense media separation, particle size separation, etc. Limit the unsupported stope wall exposures by applying additional ground support between levels (e.g. cablebolts from strike drives in/or out of the ore, etc.).

Underground mining would be carried out by long hole and room-and-pillar mining methods, with the former representing 90% of the tonnage and room-and-pillar 10%. With some existing infrastructure already in place from the historic Lamaque mine (now mined out) and gold prices close to double that of the estimated AISC at the time of acquisition ...

Long hole stoping is a highly selective and productive method of mining and can cater for varying ore thicknesses and dips (0 - 90 degree). It differs from manual methods such as timbered and shrinkage as once the stope has begun blasting phase it cannot be accessed by personnel.

Impacts of Blasting on Domestic Water Wells Jay Hawkins Workshop on Mountaintop Mining Effects on Groundwater May 9,2000 Opening Statement: I'm going to cover two areas of the impacts of blasting on domes tic wells and associated aquifers. First, I will discuss my .

The long-hole mining begins by the excavation of an open raise. The drilling is done from the lower level and the blasting from the upper level. ... (59 ft) high hill in order to take advantage of the local shallow base of oxidation and to limit environmental impact. DEVELOPMENT. Ramp: The ramp is located 60 m to 80 m (197 ft to 262 ft) of the ...

shallow hole blasting ore mining. Apr 02 2019 · 5 common blasting methods in open pit mining Shallow hole blasting Shallow hole blasting hole diameter is small generally about 3075 mm hole depth is typically 5 meters below sometimes up to 8 meters or so such as YUANPCR200PRO top hammer pneumatic crawler rock drilling rig hole depth can be increased

Apr 15, 2017· A shallow-hole driller may also be used for p reparing blast holes in underground m ines. If we do not do these operations, the expendi ture of mining .

Open pit mines are used to exploit low grade, shallow ore bodies. However, some pits are quite deep – about 1 km. The mining rate is greater than 20,000 tonnes per day (tpd) but is usually much greater. Some pits operate at a rate of more than 100,000 tpd Open pit mining results in two waste streams: waste rock which contains no economic
