Mauritanian iron ore powder (OM) has advantages of high iron grade, low aluminum content, and low loss on ignition, which can be used as a new mineral to replace low alumina limonite that has been exhausted in Australia. However, it will have a certain negative impact on sintering because of its high SiO2 content. The mechanism of SiO2 content affecting the sintering behavior was first studied ...
The annual production scheduling of open pit mines determines an optimal sequence for annually extracting the mineralized material from the ground. The objective of the optimization process is usually to maximize the total Net Present Value (NPV) of the operation. Production scheduling is typically a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) type problem containing uncertainty in the geologic input data ...

Openpit mining is a surface mining operation whereby ore, or waste, is excavated from the surface of the land. In the process of digging the surface of the land, a deeper and deeper pit is formed until the mining operation ends. It is usually suitable to determine the final shape of the pit before the mining operation starts.
