 CLEANING AND REMOVAL

They are two activities very related to each

other that are made after the blasting of
rocks.
Material fired that must be evacuated to
continue attacking the work front.

First method:
They use shovels and wheelbarrows with
two people. When the distance to be
cleaned is short, in some cases it is better
to use the mining car. 1 shift or more to
clean a front. It can be used when the
length to be cleaned is between 50 to 100
meters. Approximate advance of the front:
10 to 20 meters / month. Fuente: amineria.com
A second method:

Shovels and mining cars. It is a very

common medium in many mines.
Employees for lengths of 50 to 200
meters, with a front advance of 20 to
30 meters / month. A turn to clean
the front.

Third Method:

Use of shovels and mining cars. In

half turn, a front is cleaned, length of
more than 200 meters, Front
advance of 30 to 60 meters / month
Fuente: deonvengo.blogspot.com
Fourth Method:

Use of shovels, mining cars and

locomotives. Cleaning time a front: 2 to 4
hours length of more than 500 meters. Front
advance from 40 to 80 meters / month.

 TRANSPORTATION ON RAILS
It is a very widespread method, given that
its possibility of application is feasible in
diverse conditions, for its great
performance and for its security. Elements
that comprise it:
• Locomotives
• Mining cars Fuente: 123rf - reliquias
• Trolley line
• Signaling devices
Railroad track
The railway consists of rails, sleepers, fish plates,
plates, rail nails, rail bolts and ballast.
The rails are determined by weight / unit length
(30, 50, 60, 80 pounds / yard).
The distance between rails of denominates gauge
(width of track), this can be 18 ", 20", 30 ", etc.
The sleepers share the weight of the train
transmitted by the rails. Its length is depending on
the width of the road. The quality of the wood for
the sleeper will depend on its ability to resist. The
sleepers are placed on the ballast.

Changes are also used to change direction.
Copper cables are welded to each joint of wheels,
to transmit energy well, when a trolley system is
used
Mining Cars
They are metal caissons that transport the
ore load or dismantle.
The drawers are supported on a chassis,
which in turn are mounted on metal wheels,
which are joined by axes.
The cars at both ends have hooking
systems to be moved together.
Its capacity will depend on the volume to be
cleaned, there are 40 ft3, 110 ft3, 140 ft3,
etc.
The models of cars will vary depending
also on the discharge system that the mine
has: fifth wheel (side discharge), discharge
through the bottom, flip (rocker), etc
Locomotives
They can use the trolley or battery system.
Its capacity will be based on the number of
mining cars that you want to pull
(locomotives of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 18 tons, etc)
They consist of a chassis, bearing trains,
grease boxes, control systems, brakes,
coupling devices, sandboxes.
In the case of electric locomotives, they will
have DC motors.
In the case of trolley systems, there will be
an additional cost for the trolley line, in
addition to the power system (rectifiers)
CLEANING OF FRONTS SCRAPER
It is a method that employs a drag winch
that controls a metal rake.
The rock is moved by the rake, whose
movement is provided by the transfer of a
Fuente: UNI, métodos de explotación subterránea
steel cable (back and forth) and returns
with a return cable that goes through a
pulley and that is wound in the drum of the
winch.
The winches can be powered by pneumatic
or electric power.
The capacity of the rakes will be based on
the amount of load that you want to move.

 TRANSPORTATION WITH BELT CONVEYOR

Reasons for the use of conveyor belts:

• The great distance to which you can transport the materials, either as a
single tape or with several, one after another.
• Its easy adaptation to the terrain profile.
• Its great transport capacity.
• Possibility of transporting varied materials in class and granulometry.

Other reasons:
• Smooth and silent march.
• Possibility of downloading at any
point of your stroke. It basically
consists of an endless belt that
operates between two pulleys

Fuente: PHONIX
The strips can be made of canvas,
neoprene, etc. which should have the
following characteristics.

• Flexibility. - To adapt to different

diameters of pulleys used, in such a way
that they do not become brittle and
decrease their durability.
• Resistance to stress, given that it is
subject to high voltages, resistance to Fuente: dismet GALERIA

corrosion
TRANSPORTATION WITH TRUCKS

Low profile trucks or surface trucks

Low profile trucks are used from 10 to 60
tons of capacity per trip. Your selection in
both size and number will depend on the
mining cycle and operating conditions
(opening section, road conditions, gradient,
etc.). Fuente: 123 RF archivos
EXTRACTION BY SHAFT

It is an extraction method that hoists the Fuente: GGH CHILE

mineral through a pit, the load is
deposited in the skips and this is lifted by
means of an electric winche.
At the top, it has a discharge system
towards a mineral storage hopper.

CARGUIO

Silo or Chute It is an area of ​great

magnitude where the ore is stored inside
the mine for production regulation.

Funnel Area
all the material is received and then
transported abroad
Fuente: sección - minería
Charge to Mining Carts

The common loading is done by taking the

funnel of the storage chute, towing
winches, lifting winches, locomotives
operated by qualified personnel
