Abstract
In this paper, stope structure optimization during sublevel caving mining is considered under the condition that the isolated draw zones (IDZs) are nonstandard ellipsoid, which is realized by dynamically adjusting the arrangement of IDZs and quantifying the degree of intersection of IDZs according to an ore profit and loss calculation model. A dynamic intersecting arrangement model based on IDZs was proposed, which can dynamically adjust the sublevel height and drift spacing according to the ore-rock bulk flow parameters, economic indicators, occurrence condition of the ore body, drilling machine, and so forth. Based on the model, the range of drift spacing, the lower volume of crestal residual ore, and the higher volume of mixing waste rock are calculated. By deducing the function of ore profit and loss, a calculation model for ore profit and loss is established to quantify the degree of intersection of IDZs and determine the best stope structure. Using the constructed dynamic intersecting arrangement model, a stope structure of −213 m to −303 m in the Yanqianshan Iron Mine was designed, with a sublevel height of 22.5 m and a drift spacing of 20.5 m. A physical drawing model was designed, and three physical simulation experiment schemes were conducted to compare and analyse the ore loss and dilution of the intersecting arrangement model and the traditional tangent arrangement model. The results showed that the loss rate decreased by 3.66% and the dilution rate increased by only 0.22%, thus verifying the effectiveness and applicability of the model to optimize the stope structure.
