2021 – In-pit crusher moved from pit to 6190 area, 5490 tunnel instability. 2024 – Current mine production equipment: 8 Atlas-Copco blasthole drills (12 ¼, 10 5/8, 7 7/8 in. holes), 8-10 P&H 2800 and 4100 electric rope shovels (45-72 cu. yds.) and 2 large hydraulic back hoes, 106 794 and 930 360-ton diesel-electric haulage trucks.
Crusher play a vital role in the mining industry, particularly in surface and open-pit mining operations. These machines are essential for breaking down large chunks of extracted material into smaller, more manageable sizes that can be processed further. In pit mining, where the extraction process involves removing large volumes of...
History. This In Pit Crusher and Conveyor System was Commissioned by Rio Tinto in 2009 at the Clermont Mine in Central Queensland Australia.. This IPCC has less than 10,000 operating hours. At the time it was the Worlds Largest …
Transportation costs are a significant part of capital and operating costs of large open pit mines. Cost efficiency and high reliability of in pit crushing and conveying systems compared to conventional truck-shovel system makes it more appealing to be utilized in modern mining activities. In this paper the suitable location of an in pit crusher is investigated as a …
Implementing an In-Pit Crushing and Conveying system (IPCC) serves as a tool to lower mining costs and reduce emissions, making IPCC an interesting alternative to conventional material transport systems. Besides the significant …

The main drive motor of the first huge ThyssenKrupp in-pit crusher at CITIC Pacific Mining's Sino Iron project was operated for 30 minutes in July 2011, marking an important milestone for the Chinese-owned magnetite project near Cape Preston in Western Australia. The crusher is the first unit of a series of equipment to be commissioned as the ...
4. 2. Definition of in-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) system A continuous processing system that includes the shovel, crusher, spreader and all appropriate conveyors that reduces rock of mine (ROM) to a conveyable size. In fact, IPCC is the use of fully mobile, semi-mobile or fixed in-pit crushers coupled with conveyors and spreaders (for waste) or stackers …

In-pit crusher location as a dynamic location problem Application of the IPCC system from year 6 will decrease the haulage costs by about 6% compared to the conventional shovel-truck system. This equates to about $150 million through the mine life. In this case all the parameters were predicted using available data.
