Study on Application Effect of Truck Scanner in Husab Uranium Deposit
Husab uranium deposit mainly occurs in the contact zone between the Rossing Formation and the Khan Formation,the Upper Rossing Formation and a small amount in the Chuos Formation.The ore body is complex,with large spatial grade variations,and hard to effectively monitor the ore grade during the mining process which result in high dilution and loss rates in mining and seriously affects the utilization of resources and the economic benefits of the enterprise.In order to solve the problems of ore depletion and loss,a gantry-type ore grade online inspection system——Truck Scanner was developed in Husab uranium deposit,which realizes non-stop measurement of the ore trucks,improves the measurement efficiency and reduces the operation cost.The results of the dilution and loss analysis of the Husab uranium deposit in 2022 showed that after applying the scanner,the total dilution rate of the mine decreased by about 9.6 percent,and the total loss rate decreased by about 4.6 percent,bringing an economic benefits of approximately$88.74 million.Meanwhile,the truck scanner,as an independent measurement system,strongly guarantees the stability of the supply system of the Husab uranium deposit.
