Abstract

Email to a Friend
Several factors affect the productivity of mining operations. The geological structure of a mineral deposit and the fragment size of blasted material are considered to be most influential. It is well known that productivity varies with mucking cycles and that this is related to the explosive energy produced by a blast.
