Block caving mining Block caving mining includes drilling holes underground beneath the ore body and using planned blasts to break down the ore and the rocks Then the mixture of rocks and ore fall with the help of gravity to be transported for processing Block caving mining often takes place once the production through open pit mining
mining industry with magnetic iron ore deposits have successfully been using sublevel caving for mining iron ore deposits with reduced processing costs McNab et al 2022 The key to both reducing dilution and increasing ore recovery is an optimized mine design and draw control strategy Bull and Page 2022 Much research has been performed
Use in hard rocks strong ore ie leave open Dimensions variable but up to 200m high PILLAR SUPPORTED STOPES Leave pillars in low grade ore or waste In coal mining pillar recovery → subsidence SHRINKAGE STOPES Suited to steep veins beds dip 60º Ideally require strong walls weak ore
Veins are often mined using stope mining which involves excavating portions of ore creating cave like voids underground Massive orebodies are usually mined using bulk mining methods by creating stopes There are many types of stope mining If the orebody is tabular flat and generally dipping room and pillar
· A new mining scheme by employing the induced caving mining method to exploit hanging wall ore body during the transition from open pit to underground mining is proposed The basic idea is to use the mined out area generated by the planned mining of the hanging wall ore body to absorb the collapsed slope body so as to avoid the influence of the inner slope mining to the normal open pit mining
Mining parameters are one of the main factors affecting the loss and dilution with non pillar sublevel caving those mining parameters the optimal independent advance of ore breaking and the side hole angles are more flexible and the optimization of these two parameters is an effective way to reduce ore on analyzing the fundamental basis of mining
