The document investigates how different block dimensions in an open pit mine design can affect the economic life of the mine. It finds that larger block sizes generally increase the recoverable ore reserves and production rates by reducing dilution, which leads to a longer mine life. Specifically, it determines that block height has the most significant impact on governing the economical life of the mine, as changes to block height directly impact the mining equipment used and associated capital and operating costs over the life of the mine.
