FIND A OPTIMIZED SITE FOR A NEW OPEN CAST MINE

Site Selection for a new Quartzite Quarry
quartzite as building material
possible conflicts (land use and contamination of the environment)
consideration process
necessary data
ArcGIS workflow
Dr. Steffen Knospe
Building Materials
Sand and Gravel
Natural Stone
Limestone, Dolomite
Clay
other industrial minerals
around 600 Mio. t of raw material in Germany per year
6400 operations
137000 employees
21.5 Bill. sales
Dr. Steffen Knospe
Quartzite
quality criteria is SiO2-concentration
use for fire proof materials or as natural stone or as ballast in railway
construction, etc.
mining in open casts
transport with trucks
Low quality with low market value --> only short transport routes possible

Some sorts of Conflicts

conflict of needs (e.g. recreation - mining)
conflict of values (natural protection supply of raw materials)

into the working_directory/data folder
Dr. Steffen Knospe
26

Quartzite Areas minus Elimination Areas

union: merging all buffered elimination areas
erase: cutting out all elimination areas
from quartzite
multipart to singlepart: discretization
add field
area calculation (Field_Calculator)
selection (Selection_by_Attributes:
area > 77000 m)
create new layer from selection
save new data set
Dr. Steffen Knospe
31
Quartzite vs. Consideration Areas

buffer the consideration areas
add field: new field Consideration
edit field: insert name
of consideration purpose
union: consideration layers
identity: consideration layer and
quartzite layer
(delete / hide empty fields
create layer from selected features)
estimation of conflict value
change symbology: categorize
by a probability / or the
sum of conflicts
