Iron Ore Blending Based on Linear Programming

Abstract

Ore Blending is an important problem that the majority of mining enterprises have to face. To solve the ore blending problem, the production plan should be made firstly, and then small adjustments should be made in according to the actual condition. By effective control and management, the balance of ore quality and stability will be realized. This paper introduced the linear programming and the concept of ore blending. A mathematical model is established by linear programming, solving the problems about ore blending of multi-seam mining in iron Mine of Tangshan hebei minging Ltd., giving the countermeasure aiming at the problem, realizing the effective management and control of ore quality. Preface In mine enterprises ore Blending is mixxing different grade ore evenly in a planned way in mining and shipment process, according to the existing resources and production capacity, according to the relevant indicators, to ensure that the final ore quality standard (such as ore grade, reserves, etc.) meet demand department requirements. At the same time collocating part lean ore in a planned way help to meet the industrial economic use standard, which is helpful to rational utilization of mineral resources, improve relationship between time and space for stope mining, avoid the phenomenon of pressure ore, maintain the normal production of mine to create favorable conditions. Improving the quality of the part lean ore grade help to increase the price standard and mining economic income. Linear programs arise in a variety of practical applications. It is capable of handling a variety of problems such as Portfolio [, Land consolidation optimization [, watershed management [, capacity allocation [,etc.
