Prediction of copper recovery from geometallurgical data using D-vine copulas

The accurate modelling of geometallurgical data can significantly improve decision-making and help optimize mining operations. This case study compares models for predicting copper recovery from three indirect test measurements that are typically …

The optimisation of block caving production scheduling with geometallurgical uncertainty – a multi-objective approach

The incorporation of the uncertainties of geometallurgical variables in mine planning provides new opportunities for decision-makers to analyse, compare and choose among many scenarios to achieve an optimal balance between economic and operational …
