Appendix E8 - OP Loss and Dilution
2013-1-31 · Re: KSM - 2012 PFS Loss and dilution calculations 1. Introduction The KSM project is a large open pit copper-gold porphyry deposit. The ore-body is continuous within the cut-off grade shell. The pits will be mined with large shovels and trucks at an ore mining rate of 120,000 tonnes/day feeding the mill.
Estimating Mining Factors (Dilution and Ore Loss) in Open ...
2007-1-1 · Dilution and ore loss have an important bearing on the success of open pit mining projects. Their impacts on production costs, revenues and production rate require that they are correctly modelled in the long-term mine plan. The estimation of dilution and ore loss is therefore an essential part of any Ore Reserve estimate or mine schedule.
