Primary crusher site selection in open pit mines: Case study in Sungun copper mine

Facility site selection, (such as Primary or in pit Crusher location) is one of the most important steps in mine design process that has a significant impact on economy of the mining operation. This study covers an attempt to find the optimal location for primary crusher in order to support the expa...

This study covers an attempt to find the optimal location for primary crusher in order to support the expansion of Sungun copper mine, which is the second largest open pit mine in Iran. Recent exploration drilling has led to a considerable increase in the ore reserve. Therefore, Sungun started the studies followed with an expansion plan with the goal to increase the capacity from 14 to 28 Mt/Year within the next 8 years. In this paper, 14 effective parameters for finding the best location for a new crusher in five possible options were considered. The options were evaluated based on weighted linear combination method. The results show that the location in South East part of the open pit is the best option for locating of the new crusher. Finally, based on the economic parameters and copper price forecasts, pit optimization and sensitive analysis are applied. Results show that in the worst case, just 0.17 % of ore reserve is affected by the selected area and the minable reserve can cover 78 years of operation.Nasirinezhad AliStevanović DejanIgnjatović DraganRahmanpour MehdiFaculty of Mining and Geology, Belgradearticlesite selectionmulti criteria decision makingsensitivity analysissungun copper mineGeologyQE1-996.5ENSRPodzemni Radovi, Vol 2021, Iss 38, Pp 15-25 (2021)
