section before stoping commences. The stoping method that will be used is an on-reef scattered breast mining system, which will utilize ULP equipment that has been designed to operate in stoping widths of 0.90–1.20 m. The method that is described in this paper is based on a reef dipping up to 10°,
Konkola Copper Mine's Number 4 Shaft is a trackless underground mine applying sublevel open stoping (SLOS) mining method. Number 4 shaft wants to increase ore production from 1 million metric tonnes per annum to 3 million metric tonnes per annum in the next 5 years but ore recovery is 70% or less and dilution is 20% or more.
So mineral dressing or ore dressing is commonly regarded as processing of raw ores to yield marketable products by such physical means those do not destroy the physical and chemical identity of the ore. Economic Justification of Mineral Dressing: 1. To purify and upgrade the ore:

The field scale experimental results indicate that sublevel open stoping with fan layout blastholes and tight backfilling is suitable as a mining method for the condition where an orebody and the hangingwall can be kept stable during the mining process.

In order to smooth ore production during the transition from open pit to underground mining at Yanqianshan Iron Mine, China, it is necessary to select an appropriate mining method to operate simultaneously open-pit mining and underground mining for inner-slope (hanging-wall) ore-body. Based on practical geologic setting of the hanging-wall ore …
It is a method of ore mining that divides the ore block into an ore room and a pillar during the mining process. The stope is mined in two steps. It exists in an open way and mainly relies on the strength of ore and the pillar support capacity to maintain the stability of the stope, also called the natural support mining method.
Mines that make use of an open stoping mining method aim to extract only the ore, leaving the waste behind. Many orebodies have well-defined boundaries between the ore and the waste rock. In such orebodies, the introduction of waste into the ore due to overbreak dilutes the grade. In massive disseminated orebodies, dilution is less problematic.
In this bulletin the subject of ore dressing is approached from the economic rather than from the technological standpoint, and the supporting data have been compiled with a view to their bearing upon the economic exploitation of ore deposits. Results obtained are stressed rather than the details of processes and the physics and chemistry involved. For discussions …
Sublevel stoping Sublevel stoping is a mining method in which ore is blasted from different levels of elevation but is removed from one level at the bottom of the mine. Before mining begins, an ore pass is usually drilled from a lower to a higher elevation. Jumbos selectively drill holes into the roof of the drift and fill them with explosives ...
respectively. The mine uses four different mining methods: sublevel open stoping in zones A and B; drift and fill mining in zone C; narrow vein mining in zone C; Alimak mining in zones A and B. This paper focuses on the sublevel open stoping mining used in zone A. In this method, top and bottom accesses are mined to reach the sublevel open stope.

2.2.1 Sublevel Open-Stoping and Caving Mining Method (I) The main feature of sublevel open-stoping and caving mining method is to extract the hanging-wall ore-body by sublevel stoping incorporated with caving. While open-pit is operating, the ore-body can be mined out by sublevel open-stoping method, as shown in Fig. 2.
room-and-pillar method, breast stoping (overall mining method), the filling method, longwall caving. In order to improve mining efficiency, various mining methods have been proposed, and some of them have proved efficient in mining practice over the last decade (Yi & Wang 2007; Zhou et al. 2010; Yang & Yuan 2013; Guo et al. 2014).
The open stoping mining method is unique in that it does not require artificial support. There are four types of open stope mining: Overhand stoping. Overhand stoping is an open stope mining method that works the ore deposit from the bottom upward. With the drill and blast technique, this is the typical direction used to create a stope.
The open stope mining method is widely used in mines with good mining conditions. However, when mining ore bodies above medium thickness, a large number of …
A probabilistic benchmarking method is used to estimate benchmark stability stoping widths and benchmark average stoping width for three commonly used narrow vein longhole blast patterns. Average stoping widths for inline, staggered and dice-5 blast patterns have been estimated at 1 ?3, 1 ?5 and 1 ?7 m respectively. Average stoping width can be

9.3.3: Sublevel (Open) Stoping. If we had a stronger and more competent host rock, we could dispense with the need to keep ore in the stope to support the hanging wall, as we do VCR …
Stoping is very development intensive, although the cost of development is finally compensated by the fact that much of it is done in ore. Efficient use of large-scale blasting makes stoping method one of the lowest-cost underground mining methods available (Hartman, 1992). Several variations of open stoping have evolved due to modern technology.

It requires mill tailings to be used as a raw ...
While this technique is typically used for shallower deposits, it is still a form of underground mining rather than surface mining.. The main difference is that in surface mining, extracting ore bodies takes place from an open access point at the mine's surface.. In underground mining techniques such as cut-and-fill stoping, the ore body is extracted from …
The stoping work of the shrinkage mining method is conducted in layers from bottom to top with layer height of 2–3 m generally. The stoping face is mostly trapezoidal, and the stoping in each layer includes rock drilling, blasting, ventilation, local ore drawing, flatbacking flat fields, and heightening the square-set raise in the absence of rib pillar.

INTRODUCTION One basic design feature utilized in all caving and sublevel stoping techniques is the drawpoint. These draw- points may be located on sublevels when using sublevel caving methods, or may be located at the floor pillar when using block caving, sublevel stoping, or vertical crater retreat methods. How the drawpoint is designed and developed, how the ore is …
