productivity. In surface mining applications, the ESP addresses the selection of equipment to extract and haul mined material, including both waste and ore, over the lifetime of the mining pit. In this paper, we focus speci cally on the truck and loader equipment selection problem for surface mines.

One of the principal costs in mine is related to purchase and application of equipment. Proper fleet selection, in a way that it secures the production needs of a mine as well as minimizes costs of production, is one of the real challenges of mine planners. As such, with the selection of suitable fleet of equipment and their application, could minimize the capital and operational costs.
