摘要：
In block caving, it is important to estimate the cavability of an ore body. This study proposes a new three dimensional (3D) model for predicting the characteristics of ore fragmentation in block caving, which is based on the Monte Carlo simulation technique. In this paper, the following subjects are discussed: sampling methods of discontinuity, 3D modeling algorithms and conceptualization for analyzing the distribution of discontinuities. In addition, the influence of each modeling parameter on the distribution of ore fragmentation was analyzed. The characteristics of ore fragmentation in a Northern China underground copper mine are used as a case study. Based on the methods discussed here, a software system named "MAKEBLOCK" was developed for analyzing the characteristics of discontinuities in an ore body and predicting the size distribution of ore fragments in block caving. The ore fragmentation attained by using this 3D model is in a good agreement with the field fragmentation measurements.
