Method of calculating the mineability criteria basing on economic conditions

摘要

Geological and mining criteria (e.g. exploitation depth, deposit thickness) and technological and quality (e.g. metal content in ore) criteria, on the basis of which the limits and quantity of resources are set, are calculated atthe stage of documenting the deposit (balancing criteria) and at the stage of drawing up the deposit development plan (industrial ability criteria). These criteria are calculated from the assumed economic conditions, presented as a function (variables explained) of explanatory variables, which are the balancing or resources' industrial ability criteria and other variables (3).
