1. Introduction
The prediction of penetration rate is very important
in mine planning. Total drilling costs could be estimated by using prediction equations. Also, one could
use prediction equation to select the drilling rig type,
which is best suited for given conditions. The drillability of rocks depends on many factors. Bit type and diameter, rotational speed, thrust, blow frequency and
ushing are the controllable parameters. On the other
hand the parameters such as rock properties and geological conditions are the uncontrollable parameters.
This paper has been prepared from a PhD thesis [1].
The thesis was aimed to develop a model for drilling
and blasting in open pits and quarries.
