Development of new comprehensive relations to assess rock fragmentation by blasting for different open pit mines using GEP algorithm and MLR procedure

The fragment size of blasted rocks considerably affects the mining costs and production efficiency. The larger amount of blasthole diameter (ϕh) indicates the larger blasting pattern parameters, such as spacing (S), burden (B), stemming (St), charge length (Le), bench height (K), and the larger the...
