Enhancing production rates at El Teniente's black cave mine through optimizing HF hole distribution using discrete fracture network modeling and geostatistical simulation methods

This study at the Esmeralda Mine, part of the El Teniente Division of CODELCO, investigates optimizing hydraulic fracturing (HF) holes’ spatial distribution to improve rock material production in one of the world's largest copper-molybdenum deposits. Utilizing diverse data sources, including bo...
