Abstract: This book reflects the achievements of open-pit mining in China and Russia and the research results of the authors. It covers a wide range of aspects of open-pit mining science and technology, with a focus on the theory and optimization methods of open-pit mine design. The book discusses research on the optimization design of mining systems, overall design, process design, mining economics, the reliability and optimization of mine area development, and decision-making. It also includes a rich list of reference materials. This book can serve as a selective course textbook or teaching reference for undergraduate and graduate students in mining engineering at universities, as well as for scientists, designers, and on-site engineering and technical personnel.
