Unplanned dilution and ore loss prediction in longhole stoping mines via multiple regression and artificial neural network analyses
Unplanned dilution and ore loss directly influence not only the productivity of underground stopes, but also the profitability of the entire mining process. Stope dilution is a result of complex interactions between a number of factors, and cannot be predicted prior to mining. In this study, unplann...
