53 Characterization of metal grades in a stockpile of an Iron Mine (Case study
The extraction of iron ore involves surface (open-pit) or underground mining techniques (please refer to Chapter 7 (Stace, 2015) on Iron Ore Extraction Techniques). The LCA boundary used in this study is shown in Figure 20.4.The mining method selected depends on a variety of factors, including the nature and location of the deposit and the size, depth, and grade of the deposit.

First, it allows keeping the grade of the plant feed in over 95% of the time within the target range. Second, it enables meeting operational targets on throughput and utilization, since it decouples crushing and ore processing. Overall, it turned out to be financially advantageous to set up the process with a coarse ore stockpile.

A: Since Iron Ore, Bauxite, Alumina, Lime stone, Salt are NON-VOLATILE materials, there is no limitation in stockpile height. This doesn''t mean that you can go up-to whatever height you wish since this will have a major impact in the machine configuration and the operating angle of boom and the tripper.

The main advantages of an elongated stockpile are that it can easily be varied to fit into a plant layout and very large stockpiles can be built without raising the ore to prohibitive heights. The main disadvantage is that the stockpile building equipment is more complex and usually requires a higher capital investment.
