At a number of large open pit mines in Kuzbass, coal production costs have increased due to the deepening of mining operations. In order to reduce them, separate sections of coal mining at the upper horizons are operating or are being designed for mining at low current stripping ratio. For the same purpose, open-pit mining areas at the fields of existing quarries are operated and designed. Examples of such existing and projected areas are: the "Complex Synclinal" area at the Krasnobrodsky surface mine; the "Prirezka" area at the Chernigovsky surface mine; a number open-pit areas at the underground mines; etc. The main factors complicating the involvement in the development of new sites are: the presence of residential areas, industrial buildings and structures near the boundaries of the mining area; power supply lines, transport communications, which limits or excludes the production of mass explosions in the preparation of overburden for excavation; limited size or lack of areas for external dumps at a short distance from the site (in some cases, it is possible to close the mined-out space of the worked-out quarry field). When designing the development of areas characterized by such conditions, it is necessary to consider the application of new technical and technological solutions.

Analysis of Tuncbilek underground coal mine accidents based on risk analysis techniques Kestel, Sevtap Ayşe; Karpuz, Celal (2000-06-02) Underground coal mine accidents result in many losses which directly reflects to the cost of mining. The randomness in the appearance of the accidents can be determined by frequency that considers how often a specific type of the accident may occur and the severity of the accident in which a financial loss arises resulted from the occurrence of the accident. Modelling these two basic variables statistically enables the researchers to estimate the probability of future losses and to determine the risk factor...
Review of Trend Tests for Detection of Wear Out Period for Mining Machineries Gölbaşı, Onur; Demirel, Nuray (2015-04-17) Machinery systems are extensively utilized in all mining stages from beginning to end of ore production. They are capital-intensive systems and substantial amount of money is spent annually to keep their functionalities in desired levels. Therefore, implementation of effective maintenance strategy has a vital importance to prevent unexpected breakdowns due to failures and to minimize operational cost. These maintenance strategies can be constituted effectively regarding functional and structural dependencie...
Design and implementation of a multimodal transportation cost analysis model for domestic lignite supply in Turkey Demir, Eylül Ceren; Karpuz, Celal; Demirel, Nuray (2012-11-01) Transportation cost is the dominant cost and accounts for almost half of the total mining cost in surface mining. Therefore, determining transportation cost is critically important for the economic feasibility of mining projects. Turkey produces around 85 million tons of lignite per annum. The biggest state-owned company, Turkish Coal Enterprises (TKI), accounts for 43 per cent of the country's total lignite production. Around 85 per cent of the produced lignite is used in power plants for electricity gener...
A New approach to 3-dimensional optimization of ultimate pit geometry for open pit mines with variable overall slope angles Altuntov, Firdevs Kübra; Erkayaoğlu, Mustafa; Department of Mining Engineering (2019) The mining activities have high economic risks and the determination of the optimum ultimate pit limit of an ore body greatly affects the economic feasibility of an open pit mine. Due to necessity of determining optimum pit limit, many researchers proposed different algorithms and heuristic methods which maximize economic value of a mine while satisfying operational constraints and extraction sequence constraints. In most of the proposed methods, overall slope angle variation in the pit is constant. However...
Development of a dynamic maintenance algorithm with multiple scenarios: a case study for surface mining Ölmez Turan, Merv; Gölbaşı, Onur; Department of Mining Engineering (2019) Surface mining operations such as ore extraction and overburden stripping activities highly depend on machine performance. These machines’ operational plan aims to handle required amount of material within a specific period with the lowest maintenance cost and the highest availability. In order to achieve these objectives, the machines should be adapted to the production schedule properly. On this basis, maintenance policies play crucial roles in the sustainability of operations. A maintenance policy is bas...
