Open Pit Mine Planning and Design, Two Volume Set & CD-ROM Pack (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This textbook enables (under)graduate students to take a fast-track approach to surface and open pit mine planning and design and geological excavation engineering. User-friendly software guides the student through the planning and design steps, and the drillhole data sets allow the described principles to be practised via mining properties case examples. Volume 1 covers fundamental concepts involved in planning and design. Volume 2 deals with the CSMine and MicroMODEL Academic version 8.1 mine planning software packages, which are also included on a CD together with their associated tutorials and user manuals. This third edition has been revised, updated and significantly expanded.

Autorenporträt

William Hustrulid studied Minerals Engineering at the University of Minnesota. After obtaining his Ph.D. degree in 1968, his career has included responsible roles in both mining academia and in the mining business itself. He has served as Professor of Mining Engineering at the University of Utah and at the Colorado School of Mines and as a Guest Professor at theTechnical University in Lule Sweden. In addition, he has held mining R&D positions for companies in the USA, Sweden, and the former Republic of Zaire. He is a Member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and a Foreign Member of the Swedish Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA). He currently holds the rank of Professor Emeritus at the University of Utah and manages Hustrulid Mining Services in Spokane, Washington.

Mark Kuchta studied Mining Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines and received his Ph.D. degree from the Technical University in Lule Sweden. He has had a wide-ranging career in the mining business. This has included working as a contract miner in the uranium mines of western Colorado and 10 years of experience in various positions with LKAB in northern Sweden. At present, Mark is an Associate Professor of Mining Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines. He is actively involved in the education of future mining engineers at both undergraduate and graduate levels and conducts a very active research program. His professional interests include the use of high-pressure waterjets for rock scaling applications in underground mines, strategic mine planning, advanced mine production scheduling and the development of user-friendly mine software.

Randall K.Randy Martin studied Metallurgical Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines and later received a Master of Science in Mineral Economics from Mines. He has over thirty years of experience as a geologic modeler and mine planner, having worked for Amax Mining, Pincock, Allen & Holt, and Tetratech.
