Optimizing Long-Term Production Scheduling in Open Pit Mining under Commodity Price Uncertainty: A Two-Stage Stochastic Programming Approach

Elham Lotfi; Javad Gholamnejad; Mehdi Najafi; Mohammad Sadegh Zamani

Volume 15, Issue 4 , October 2024, , Pages 1491-1508

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2024.13814.2576

Abstract
  In the context of open pit mining operations, long-term production scheduling faces significant challenges due to inherent uncertainties, particularly in commodity prices. Traditional mathematical models often adopt a single-point estimation strategy for commodity price, leading to suboptimal mine plans ...  Read More

Application of stochastic programming for iron ore quality control

J. Gholamnejad; A. Azimi; M.R. Teymouri

Volume 9, Issue 2 , April 2018, , Pages 331-338

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2018.5952.1409

Abstract
  Stockpiling and blending play a major role in maintaining the quantity and quality of the raw materials fed into processing plants, especially the cement, iron ore and steel making, and coal-fired power generation industries that usually require a much uniformed feed. Due to the variable nature of such ...  Read More
