Phase Planning for Open Pit Coal Mines through Nested Pit Generation and Dynamic Programming
This paper presents a phase planning method specially designed for coal deposits with nearly horizontal, bedded coal seams. The geology of this type of deposit is modeled into a column model, instead of a block model, to avoid coal-rock mixing in blocks. A nested pit generation algorithm is develope...
