Abstract: A method for improving the efficiency of a mining operation includes obtaining measurements of at least two of: a volume of mined material removed from terrain by an excavator; a volume of the mined material carried in a bucket of the excavator after removal of the material from the terrain; and a volume of the mined material deposited by the bucket in a truck tray. The method includes alerting an operator of the excavator to a possible spillage or carry-back condition if a difference between the at least two volume measurements exceeds a threshold value. Another method includes determining an optimum dipper trajectory in response to measurements of a height and radial profile of a terrain bank, a position of the excavator relative to the bank and a target volume of material to be extracted into a bucket of the dipper during the dig cycle.

Abstract: The current invention relates to mining systems and mine planning and in particular, to operating a mine that automatically updates a mine plan. The mining system directs operation of mining equipment within a mine based on a mine plan that schedules operations in the mine. The system further includes a mining planning system for updating the mine plan by a learning module configured to determine an inferencing model from initial data obtained from a data input module. The inferencing model is then evaluated by an estimation module using the initial data and the measurement data wherein such evaluation provides a fusion model. Consequently, a mine planner module determines an updated mine plan based on an existing mine plan and the fusion model. Based on the updated mine plan, the mining system directs operation of the mining equipment within the mine.

Abstract: A mine vehicle control system (10) includes a vehicle controller (14). The vehicle controller (14) is responsive to a control zone (16) defining a part of an area traversed by a mine vehicle (12). A navigation module (24) determines a position and orientation of the vehicle (12) relative to the control zone (16). The navigation module (24) communicates with the vehicle controller (14) and supplies data relating to the position of the vehicle (12) relative to the control zone (16) as the vehicle (12) automatically traverses towards the control zone (16). A processing unit (26) is responsive to the navigation module (24) to generate a datum line extending transversely to the control zone (16) for assessing the orientation of the vehicle (12) relative to the control zone (16). The processing unit (26) has at least a part configured as a decision engine (36) which causes the vehicle controller (14) to manoeuvre the vehicle (12) so that the operative component of the vehicle (12) is positioned at a destination location in the control zone (16) provided the orientation of the vehicle (12) falls within predetermined parameters.

Abstract: A mining installation and method for recovery of minerals from a below ground deposit in which at least two bore holes (32, 34) whic are mutually spaced and extend into the deposit, the bore holes including: a) at least one bore hole (32), referred to as pressurising bore, connectable to a source of pressurising liquid and having an outlet (42) within the deposit, and b) at least one further bore hole (34), referred to as a lift bore, having an inlet (44) thereto within the deposit, the lift bore having means (46) for discharging pressurised gas therein. The arrangement is such that pressurised liquid (A) supplied to the pressurising bore (32) is able to discharge from the outlet (42) to cause material of the deposit to move toward the lift bore (34) under hydraulicking action of the liquid, with the discharge of pressurised gas (B) in the lift bore providing an air-lift action on the material moved towards the lift bore (34) such that the material is raised in the lift bore (34).
