Cut-off grade play a critical role in defining tonnages mined and processed, average grade of mill feed, cash flows, mine life time, and all major characteristics of a mineral deposit. Simply, the cut-off grade is the lowest grade at which material is considered ore and is processed to create a concentrated commodity product. Essentially, it asserts that the mill cut …

In this context, the cut-off grade defines the quantity of ore and waste, ensuring smooth supply of ore to the processing streams. While, the earliest significant effort towards the development of models for cut-off grade policy dates back to 1960s, a number of contributions on this vital aspect of a mining operation have been made since then.

For conducting a mining project's break-even analysis you first need to know about the operational expenses (OPEX). When the OPEX is known you can calculate the mineral's cut-off grade, which is the break-even grade below which it is not economical to mine the ore.

A cut-off grade is the grade of mineralisation that a deposit can be economically mined and dictates which drilling intercepts can and can't be used in a JORC resource. The cut-off grade is determined by the cost to mine a deposit, and the price that a company can sell the underlying commodity.

The depth of a mineral deposit directly affects the cost to mine that deposit and therefore cut-off grade. Shallow and near surface deposits have a lower cut-off grade because they are mined at lower costs - it is cheaper to mine things that are closer to the surface with an open pit mine. Deep, underground deposits require …

Cut-off grade is defined as the grade which discriminates between ore and waste within a given orebody. Determination of a complete optimum cut-off grade policy is a very important function during mine life. ... Ores in general are defined operationally by a cut-off grade.

The following procedure was used to determine cut-off grades: define the orebody profile; plan the stope layout and quantify the work involved; formulate equipment-performance norms; calculate unit costs; input process recoveries and metal prices; and calculate the cut-off grade. Use of the method is illustrated using data from a copper mining complex in India. …

Making the Grade. A mineral resource must have a reasonable prospect for eventual economic extraction ('RPEEE'). A cut-off grade ('COG') provides some information regarding the overlap between grade and economics. A COG represents the minimum grade needed to pay-off most* of the costs of mining and processing that material.

1. Introduction. In recent years, the mining industry has faced considerable challenges by the depletion of ore grades (Topp, 2008, Prior et al., 2012).Various studies worldwide show that the head grade for copper, gold, platinum and other metals will decrease further by the end of 2030 (Batterham and Elvish, 2009, Walters, 2016, Rule et al., 2015).As …
