A OPEN PIT MINING AÇIK OCAK MADENCİLİĞİ

to select the proper haulage system in
Sarcheshmeh copper mine of Iran, some
other factors apart from technical and
economic factors, by taking into account the
SD concept were considered and the
selection was done by using hierarchical
preference voting system (HPVS) method.
This PVS uses a DEA model to produce
weights associated with each ranking place.
One of the main advantage of PVS method,
is to remove the uncertainty in comparisons,
in addition, regarding to application of a
mathematical model, outcomes are more
reliable.
The result of this study shows that, the
combination of truck-shovel and in-pit
crusher with score 2.048 has higher priority
compared to other alternatives such as truckshovel
and shovel and mobile in-pit crusher
as a proper haulage system for Sarcheshmeh
copper mine.
