Conference Proceedings
Hoist and Haul 2005
Recent Australian underground mine developments have led to a variety of
different ore transport solutions being adopted for each specific new mine
design. Design decisions are increasingly being influenced by developments in
technology, which need to be factored into capital and cost considerations. For
example, some new projects opt for trucking of ore up spiral ramps, while others
utilise incline conveyors or conventional vertical shaft hoisting.
Similar trends are occurring around the globe and therefore the theme of this
conference was broadened to allow shaft hoisting to be compared with a range of
alternative underground ore handling technologies. Hoist and Haul' now includes
any systems or technologies for the handling of ore from the point of extraction
from the mine through to stockpiling on surface.
The papers in this volume cover a wide range of topics including shaft
hoisting, incline and drift hoisting, conveying, hydraulic hoisting, rail
haulage, tramming and truck haulage, as well as papers covering the design of
systems and components, operating, economic and safety issues.
This volume is out of print - individual papers
can be accessed below.
