Numeric modelling of blasting and gravity flow in sublevel caving mines

Purpose and goal The aim with this project is to develop a numerical model to assess both blast-induced fragmentation in a semi-confined situation and the gravity flow characteristics of fragments in sublevel caving…

Face-to-Mill

Purpose and goal The main objective of the proposed project is to increase the overall production capacity in large open-pit mining. This is done by adapting the findings from Face-to-Surface I, and extending…

Efficient mining – Face-to-surface

Purpose and goal The Strategic innovation programme for the Swedish mining and metal producing industry (STRIM) aims at strengthening the mining sector’s competitiveness and contributing to a sustainable development. This project has significantly…
