This paper proposes a multi-site global optimisation model of blending operations, alternative routings and order scheduling with a co-production flow. It is performed in a phosphoric supply chain owning three open-pit mines of different geological structures and chemical compositions, each having a dry blending plant.
In pursuit of greater profits, SCM is moving away from horizontal structures to vertical integration. Find resources and tools to help plan your supply chain integration.
The mining techniques adopted to extract gemstones invariably reflect the nature of the deposit: primary deposits (in hard rocks, worked underground or in open pits) and secondary deposits (found in sedimentary, soft-rock, placers).

The mining & metals industry, often considered a villain in the context of environmental sustainability, is now seen as a critical part of the solution. Investors and consumers increasingly recognize the industry as not only a first source of emissions in the value chain, but as a provider of critical raw materials needed for the global energy …
The pandemic became a catalyst for the mining and metals sector to build more resilient supply chains — here's how process mining can help.
We have further classified our literature into four stages (pre-adoption, adoption, implementation, and application). Finally, we synthesized the findings of the study and proposed a research framework to explain how an organization can build supply chain resilience and enhance supply chain performance with the help of blockchain …
