An Implementation of Ant Colony and Genetic Algorithm based Hybrid-Metaheuristic for Cut-off Grade Optimization in Open-Pit Mining Operations

This study presents a new mathematical model for cut-off grade and production scheduling optimisation in open pit mining operations. The model maximises the net present value of the operation subject to the mining precedence, production capacity, and grade-blending constraints. A solution using exac...
