Appropriate Geotechnical Engineering Helps Improve Mineral Reserves
Mineral resources are a valuable part of a country’s economy, and the mineral industry relies on the skills of the industry professionals to extract the mineral resources safely and economically from the ground. The conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves entails the development of a safe and economic mining plan for the extraction of the available resources. A major part of the mine planning and design exercise requires geotechnical engineering inputs which are based on preliminary information gathered during the exploration stage and during the development of design studies. The judicious use of available geotechnical engineering information for the design and planning of a surface or underground mining operation, and the generation of pertinent information helps in improving the conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves. As the project progresses, the integration of additional key data points into the design process helps develop an updated information base for upgrading the mine design, thereby increasing the conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves. The continuous improvement of the quality and quantity of information regarding the mineral resources and the estimated behaviour of the rock masses to excavation loading helps reduce the financial risk of the project. This keynote address covers the traditional geotechnical information generated during the evaluation of a mineral project and discusses the potential for improving the recovery of available mineral resource through the development of appropriate geotechnical databases, models and forecasting methods to help increase the conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves.
