FORMAL CITATION:Turnbull, D and Cooper, A, 2010. In-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC)
In-pit Crushing and Conveying (IPCC) systems have been around for over 50 years. But due to recent economic circumstances, mining companies have become increasingly interested in the technology. IPCC systems are a viable alternative to traditional truck and shovel mining due to their sustainable operation and potentially lower operating costs.

In-Pit Crushing and Conveying (IPCC) is a mode of material transportation that utilises conveyors and stackers in conjunction with fully mobile, semi-mobile or fixed in-pit crushers. Developed in Germany in the 1950s, IPCC systems have since been installed in over 200 mines world-wide (Koehler, 2003).

In this study, a bucket wheel excavator (BWE) and an in-pit crushing and conveying (IPCC) system were evaluated. The geotechnical analysis showed that free-digging with a BWE was not guaranteed, therefore the study focused on a fully mobile IPCC at a 5 Mtpa production rate.

Abstract Cost efficiency and high reliability of In-Pit Crushing and Conveying (IPCC) system make it more appealing to be used in deeper open-pit mining activities. Determination of the optimum time and location (OT–OL) for applying the IPCC system were always a challenge. Application of mathematical programming approaches suffers from reduced computational efficiency due to a lot of

Haulage costs have been an area that have risen significantly with the increase of diesel prices. One alternative to reduce haulage costs is to shorten the truck haul distance by bringing the truck dump point into the pit. Using an in-pit movable crusher or crushers, and conveying the ore and/or waste out of the pit can reduce the haul costs.
