Abstract

Efficient modern-day mining operations are turning increasingly to technology to combat rising operating costs in an adverse economic climate for the industry. Computerised truck dispatching is one such technological advance that has enhanced the efficiency of the mining operation at Palabora. The economic incentives, basic operation and general system benefits of Palabora's computerised truck dispatching system are considered.
