description This research project aims to optimise the long term mine rock dump planning by generating the optimum rock dumping schedules using mixed integer programming (MIP) models. Through the modelling of the problem, three new MIP models were developed and implemented in a greenfield mining project. The life of mine dumping schedules were successfully generated by the models, which focuses on minimising the haulage cost, maximising the equipment utilisation, and seeking the balance between the two.
