Determining the amount of marketable blocks of dimensional stone before actual extraction

摘要: The lack of a proper decision variable impedes the planning dimensional stone quarry operation. So far, “quasi-grade”, which may measure quality, developed via multivariate statistical methods is offered as variable. However, marketable blocks stones should satisfy not only quality requirements, but also conform to certain standards, and these two are essentially incommensurable. Clearly, for with known amount (MDS) provides best (i.e. sequencing operation unit volumes). A method determining MDS before actual extraction presented.
