Equipment selection in mining engineering is one of the most important decisions that affects the mine design production planning and economic parameters in open pit and underground mining
2 MIN READ Mining is a vital and growing industry On average tons of coal and 40 000 pounds of minerals are used per person annually in the of that product powers American households and industries Almost every manufactured item holds some form of US mined mineral from your car s battery to the electricity you use to power your life
The equipment investment is large and the annual operating cost is high in oversized open pit mines The rationality of the truck shovel selection and matching has a more prominent influence on
